I also have a friend at Motley Fool and they do the same thing that Best Buy does. Lori, I have heard about companies changing hours because of gas prices!

They work as many hours as it takes to get the job done. Sometimes more. Sometimes less. I'd be all for that! There is nothing more aggravating than putting in a 60 hour week then the next week having to take 2 hours of sick leave for a doctor appt. It will be interesting to see how the gas prices will effect our work weeks. Utah is mandating a 4 day work week for govt employees and we are looking at the same. Maybe the gas prices will have the unanticipated but positive effect of creating more flexibility for organizations that previously were not very flexible.
