Is that a joke?

After you drag and drop the clips from one side of the FTP client to the other and go to bed for the night. What part are you actually 'working' on? Same can be said for compression. Once you drag the 12 video from your computer folder into the program, set up the presets, and hit squeeze before heading off to watch the game....

Where is this 'work' you are referring to?

Scheduling updates for the day? Writing descriptions? That actually takes you 30 minutes?!? Man, these must be some grand descriptions for those each and every one of those clips. You do not have descriptions for your re-run clips on a spreadsheet you can cut and paste?

Wow.

Maybe you should invest in a typing class. Especially if you consider the actual work of a clip store and you sitting at the machine versus the time your machine is tied up and you are sleeping, eating, watching tv, working on your other machine, or beating off.

When my machine is uploading, or compressing video... ya know... things I do not have to sit there for. I do not consider that 'me' working. That is the computer doing the work.

That said, most people are not 'gaming' six clip stores doing that one hour thing on a daily basis. They would be better served focusing on doing submits (and typically already do), forum posts, tube submits, among other things, to drive traffic to their store that is a lot more effective and productive use of their time, and generate better sales.

Oh well...
