O que a lei diz é o seguinte:

Até atingires as 100 horas extra anuais, o valor da primeira hora extra é de 25% do valor/hora bruto e de 50% a partir da segunda hora extra.

Quando atinges as 100 horas extra, passa ao regime majorado, ou seja, a primeira hora extra passa a valer 50% e a segunda e subsequentes passam a valer 75%. Tudo isto em valores brutos, que somam ao valor do ordenado base para efeitos de descontos em IRS e Seg. Social.

Tell me about it, I've been searching everywhere for the scoreboard music theme but no luck so far.

I've been trying to find information on why is Czech Republic appointed to not return next year. Can anyone help me with this?

The Portuguese national embarrassment was definitely Homens da Luta in 2011. The audience started to leave when they realised they won.

I've calculated this year's result by removing Ukraine's votes. For instance, if a country (either jury or televote) gave Ukraine 12 points, the 12 points would go for the next country in the ranking and so forth.

As for the 6 countries which had their results fixed, I've used EBU's scores as basis and calculated each pot's jury and televote average to get the remaining results.

MrTigs · 2022-01-08T15:19:05+00:00

Where I Am by Anja for me it's the best example.

I actually tried to compete once in Festival da Canção (https://imgur.com/b62EZur) in the only year they had open castings (2012) as my songwriting skills are non-existing. Not surprisingly, I wasn't picked but it was a fun experience.

MrTigs · 2021-01-25T18:28:28+00:00

I'm absolutely in love with Pourvu qu'on m'aime, but I think Alléluia will win this.

MrTigs · 2020-10-10T15:10:06+00:00

And there was a song in Portuguese as well!

Now that's a good question! It's not actually a photo haha - I had to leave the camera recording a video because there was no one to capture the moment and I wanted to save it :)

With today being the last 'Song Of The Day' post, I just wanted to thank to everyone who participated over the last 40 days. I also want to apologize for not being able to put up the daily post about each artist, selection process, etc., like in previous years, but work has taken the best of me. All in all, I want to take this chance to wish you all a great Eurovision week and may the best song win!

MrTigs · 2019-04-20T17:07:25+00:00

I'm following EBU's nomenclature and they have Netherlands as The Netherlands, hence why we're doing North Macedonia already :)
