Jeff,

Just last night I stayed late, came back 5:30 am. It's hard to "put the feet down", easier to roll over... Boy, do you have it pegged.

I meant to add, that if piano technicians don't start putting their feet down, the f/t position is going to become a graveyard shift position.

"That's one of the reasons I get to work at 5:30.  I can get more done between 5:30 - 10:00 am than any other time.  Afternoon is a lost cause." - dp
I still don't understand why universities think they should expect their f/t piano technicians to work outside normal hours and pay them half what they could make working normal hours. The contract work I've done, the faculty and students will clear the room to get a piano tuned/serviced. Classrooms, teaching studios, everything short of scheduled rehearsals and performances.
