The practice of electrical line workers from Wichita, Kansas reporting in sick during their normal work week then agreeing to work overtime for extra pay on the weekend. The end result was a full week’s pay for being sick plus two shifts of premium overtime. A man could work two days and get eight days of pay under this arrangement.
Jason was sick all week then worked both shifts on Saturday and Sunday. That’s what we call a ‘Wichita Workweek.’

A nice little small city in south central Kansas with about 350,000 or so people. The west side is pretty boring and the east side is for rich people. Aircraft is a major industry like Learjet, Boeing, Raytheon, etc. Wichita is actually the aircraft capital of the world believe it or not. Lately it has been famous for BTK that was caught earlier this year.
"What? But I've worked at Boeing for over 30 years, you can't lay me off. Oh and you're replacing me with a stupid young kid who knows nothing about aircraft? Boeing you are the greatest company EVER."
