A traditional eight hour day shift.
In some companies, the 9-5 is really 8:30-5 or 9-5:30. It's an extra half hour because of an unpaid 30 minute lunch break. In companies where you're paid by the hour, it's so you don't lose out on 30 minutes of pay. In ones where you're paid by the year, it's pretty much squeazing the extra half hour out of you in order to make up for the 30 minute lunch.
It generally refers to working Monday through Friday but in modern times where services are expected to be availalble durring non business hours, evening and weekend shifts are becomming an increasingly required demand of employees.

I used to work the traditional Mon-Fri 9-5 day shift but they've got me working weekends in the evenings now.

The smallest town known man-kind (aka the town next to closter and demerest). Description: A downtown containing a minit mart (and a few other unknown stores), a pond with muck in it, and an anual flea-market.
1."Meet me downtown"
"Okay, I'll meet you in the ice cream section of the minit mart"
2. "Yes! The pond froze!"
"No way! This is like, the highlight of the year!"
3. Countdown: 34 days until the flea market/fishing contest!
4. Let's go hang out at the "loading dock" behind the bank and then go skating to the dumont-sters!

Get the Gerk mug.
A plain jane type female, often associated with the term 'white girl' -- though not always, generally at least loosely associated with a sorority.
