The recession and slow recovery have kept unemployment above 8 percent. Employers refuse to hire new employees in times of uncertainty. Many employers have laid off or reduced their workforce to avoid bankruptcy during the recession. Has this led to fewer employees working harder and longer hours?
Techcrunch reporter Sarah Perez reveals how 80% of the workforce works longer hours equaling an extra day of work per week. Do you think the recession has forced fewer employees to work more hours?

Also, I own my company. I'm talking about the millions of others in that situation. But, you being a liberal, you only think about yourself. Typical.
Where in any of my post am I looking at the government to be my mommy. In fact the government trying to be the mommy of every person and business is the problem. Plus, your a nanny-state lib, you love having the gov being your mommy.
I don't even need to comment anymore. You just keep proving my point all by yourself. LOL!
Failure? I do quite good for myself and my family, and based on the fact that you were undoubtabaly a union employee, I'd bet I'm doing better than you ever did. And being that I own my own business, I keep very busy. Why would I want a second or third job. LOL
"A black man did it?" LOL, what's that suppose to mean? Were did anyone ever talk about race anywhere in this entire post. Was that your feeble attempt and trying some Saul Alinski tactics because you are losing the argument? LOL! Sad, but funny.
By the way you spell, I doubt you ever had a real job. you've been on the public dole in some form since day one. Spent most of your life smoking weed, letting the union wipe your ass and living off of others. Bet you've never been married and had kids either. Am I right?
I don't need the unions' mob rule and extortion tactics to take care of me. I can make it on my own.
Those who have jobs work longer hours for two reasons; One is the prices on everything essential are doubled since the community organizer, a commie agitator, became resident in the "White House." That is a huge 50% effective pay cut for the working people which forces those who can and have jobs to work longer. Second reason is that economic uncertainty makes the companies relactant to hire new workers because each one cost more in taxes, insurance and in many other ways, so they prefer to pay overtime to people they already have.
