at night and a start at 6 in the morning. this is not a descendent thing to do and is a lack of respect. the folks said they'd only work from 7 to 10:30 they're going from 6 to 11 at night and don't think about the overcome head costs. if you have any sense of decency you'll stop this extra hours >> thank you very much. >> good evening supervisors i greet you on the one hundred and
