I think the "compensation" referred to in the OP is not overtime pay, but better benefits, higher salaries, bonuses, etc. i.e. if you work 80 hours a week, it'll be worth your while. If the OP did not mean that, then they should've.

I know it is trendy & hip to not spank your children and I disagree with that -- I do spank my children on occasion and I can usually tell - from the behavior of other kids in their classes - which parents don't

If you block facebook.com and fbcdn.com, then you cannot use Facebook. Using these plugins or smart adblocking filters, you can still use Facebook, but stop Facebook from tracking you on non-Facebook pages.

Even better: update your adblock plus lists to include the URL

https://adversity.googlecode.com/hg/Antisocial.txt

This list will block (or attempt to block) all third-party "Social" sites' widgets on pages not owned by the parties themselves. To install, find the add new subscription field fo AdBlock plus and paste in the URL above. Details for Chrome (but work for AdBlock plus in any browser) here:

If you use ad-block add the following rule to get rid of Facebook widgets on non-Facebook sites:

||*.facebook.*^$domain=~facebook.com|~0.0.0.0

This can be done for any annoying thrid-party site:

||*.twitter.*^$domain=~twitter.com|~0.0.0.0

&c.
