No, calm yourself, I'm not a quality control tester for the Regal King Size factory, no, I like to dilute my expected working hours with a generous helping of Lumbaggio breaks.
I sat down the other day and worked out how much I could be expected to earn on Lumage breaks in a year. I wasn't going to count scheduled breaks, cos lets face it, I don't get paid for them. I would say on average I would get through a twenty deck a day easily, so with the average Lum taking a leisurley 8 minutes to enjoy fully, that equates to a 2hrs 40min Lumage Time Accumulation (LTA), over the period of one day. Excluding sickies, I am expected to work five days a week, so that's a weekly LTA of 14hrs 20mins. Over an average month (again excluding sickies and counting a month as 4 weeks) the LTA would mount up to 57hrs 20mins. We then come to the final LTA figure per anum, 688hrs.
An amazing figure, I'm sure you will agree. With this you can apply your own hourly wage scale to work out your own Annual Lum Pay (ALP).
Taking my salary, which works out at �7 an hour, I have an ALP of �4816. Just think of what that money could buy. Cars, holidays, Big-fuck-off-tellies... your work actually subsidises your annual Lumage. With the average cost of a twenty deck at around the �4 mark, your work pays for 1204 packs, but hang on there are only 365 days in the year, och, I think I fucked this up here somewhere. You get the general idea though.
