Whoa there big guy... no one hates getting lawyered up more than me!
I'm just sayin
IF there is a legal precedent nothing gets HRs attention faster than that.
I'm only venting that why is it we have discrimination categories as long as your arm but some people try to categorize you by your marital status.
Personally I have a great supervisor who works out all holidays on a spread sheet so everyone in the department does equal time. Weekends are done by seniority and among ourselves we have agree that half of us will work Tuesday - Saturday and half Sunday - Thursday... travel and overtime is based on volunteer first and if no one volunteers a rotating schedule.
The only reason this came up was because I have been in the same department for ten years (working for the state so I am pretty invested in my retirement here) and I was thinking of transferring to a different department because I have maxed out salary wise in my current position (long time ago). I was talking to one of the guys (not a manager or supervisor) to see what it is like working in that department... and he just asked me if I would be interested in working the weekends
because I am not married.
