I was a temp at Paramount Studios in my late teens, so I got to work in a lot of interesting offices. On one assignment, I spent weeks in the CEO suite. I almost did nothing all day but answer the phone and note in a diary who called and what it was about. Then as five o'clock approached, in would burst this group of hotshot movie guys, stripping down to their shirtsleeves saying, “Can you stay a few more hours?” and I’d get overtime when I actually only worked a few hours.
