I thought it was illegal to have stocks in a company if you have a relative working there. Something about insider information.

No, you can own stock even if you work for the company, you're just restricted in when you can trade it. (It has to be within a certain period after the company's quarterly report.)

Ah, OK.

I must be thinking along the same lines as these competitions where you can't enter if you have a relative working there.

Daft owd me. :)

You can certainly own, purchase, trade, and otherwise deal with stock in companies you yourself work for or that your relatives do, the government just has restrictions in place on your activities so that you can't take advantage of privileged information that the public would not have access to.

I'd hope so. 8 hr maint would be unusual.

It's a technical term meaning "a long period of time".
