One of the things I know about Tyson is this: at least some of their employees work a 38-hour week -- but instead of being 6 8-hour days, and then a day of rest, they require 5 8-hour days and two 4-hour days.

I have no idea what the economic point of that practice could be; I do know it exhausts the employees and plays hell with any attempt at family or social life.

By the way - the people I know on this shift are legal immigrants, with work permits. Whether Tyson hires illegally I really don't know.
