The way you put it, it definately depends on the job the person is in. Even if he is a leader and needed for decision making, he can be reached by his employees. Obviously I don't have enough information to decide, so I won't vote yet.

Well. Lets say its a non-leap year.

365 - 104 (52 saturdays and 52 sundays) = 261 weekdays

261 - 10 (assuming 2 weeks paid vacation) = 251

251 - 11 (federal holidays in 2004) = 240
http://www.opm.gov/fedhol/2004.asp

240 - 5 (a reasonable number of sick days and personal days) = 235

235 (days of work in a year) * 8 (the minimum number of working hours per day for a full-time job) = 1880 hours of work per year

365 (days in 2004) * 24 (hours per day) = 8760 hours per year you could potentially be busting your ass for the man

1880/8760 = 0.21461

or roughly 21.5% of the year a full-time employee should be working.

I am an employer, and if I had a full-time employee who clocked in for 4 hours a day I'd send them packing by the third day.

You would've gotten the same response from me if you'd just asked "Is GWB an incompetent moron?"

But, I'm curious...how do you figure 11%...does the president have certain office hours?

The 11% came from a number I found online and since it took longer than I thought for someone to finally come to the conclusion I lost the link during my cut and pasting in other places.

i will try and find it again later
