Workers Get More Hours As Companies Hesitate To Hire
(USA Today) — About 15 million Americans are jobless. Many of the 139 million still working are, well,really working. Welder Dave Hoskins is averaging 10 to 20 hours a week in overtime this year and sometimes puts in seven 12-hour days in a row. The 37-year-old’s arduous schedule often stresses his marriage, especially because he and his wife, Season, have 9-month-old triplets. But his family once again can indulge in steak dinners and even eat out once in a while after scrimping last year.
