*shrug* the more people do it, the easier it will get. Maybe some people don't have the ability to negotiate that kind of contract. But if you're a programmer, you do.

Once again, the biggest problem here is that people aren't willing to take a paycut. If you're not willing to do that, then it's a lot harder.

The problem is, the workaholics and institution types effectively have forced their ways on everyone else.

Then negotiate your contract to get more days off. I've done it, you can do it, too.

The catch is, you won't get paid as much, and most people aren't willing to put up with that.

There is no acceptable alternate pronunciation for SQL and SCSI,

Usage is what matters (thus I'm calling you ignorant), and beyond that, Wikipedia has two pronunciations for SQL.

SCSI was regionally pronounced as "sexy" which frankly is a fine pronunciation and anyone who disagrees is a G8r.
