So you should get paid overtime for that. Why would you work for free? Don't you want to live?
I think the idea is that one must prostrate oneself before the employer or anyone who might communicate with him to show that their will is sacrosanct and that one will gladly do anything for pay (even accept no pay.)
"I'm not in it for the momey, I do it for the challenge / fun / exposure to new technologies / blah" is an effective large glowing finger hovering in the air, pointing at the perpetrator. Seriously, does anyone think that the employer believes this BS? All it does is serve to hilight that the potential employee is desperate and therefore will take absolutely anything thrown at them as a result of the employer being unable to successfully distinguish between his every personal desire and job-related requirements.
For me, I'm in it for the money - if I want a challenge, I have many ways to generate them for myself; if I want access to the latest technologies, I can download them and setup an environment myself. MONEY! - one of the best modern ways to buy food.
Preemptive update: I suspect such honesty wouldn't work out though; employers really do seem to want zealots who will live revel in their mundane business domain and believe that such people really do exist. N'est-ce pas?

"You want..........

"Business As Usual."
I'm going to go with "force them to listen to the 'music' produced by this generation's music industry."
That should be punishment enough for most crimes (even imaginary ones.)
It's a great source of business.
You can't just say "you're doing it wrong" without providing a better alternative.
Who else are they gonna rob? There are lots of US citizens.
It's just an alternate way to ask if he wants a donut with his coffee.
Alexa, what's the best way to be tax-efficient?
Alexa, what were Mummy and Daddy whispering about on Christmas Eve?
Bears have been granted perpetual licenses to take a dump in the woods.
Via the backdoors?
Did it take three hours to load? That site is slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.

Gary McKinnon?
You are free to "lobby" your congressperson to have the term changed :S
Duh... MegaCorp is always right. Move along citizen.
You should pass that on to the reviewer and her "news"paper.
How are we to know what motivated the pianist? One effect has been to shine a light on this review.
It's nice that there's now an official mechanism for invoking the Streisand Effect.
Indeed, the reviewer should be ashamed :P
It's not news, it's opinion.
I might note that Anne Midgette seems guilty of excessive flourishes within her chosen artistic realm - something she criticizes the pianist for.
Anyhow, reviews are meaningless nonsense; why would I care to be fed someone else's view, even if it they aren't a deep-cover shill?
You can't have too many weight-challenged bearded guys dressed as wonder woman in one place. What's wrong with you?
"I'm gonna do something bad but I'd rather avoid the consequences, kthx."
This seems to be the prevailing stratagem these days, proactive ass-covering.
Once I've made my company a household name, renowned for selling products easily categorised as manly, I'm going to come out as straight.
I doubt the zombies will leave their dealerships. You're probably safe.
