To be honest I only went once and everything's a bit of a blur. I just know they reminded people not to go to the other trivia nights in the week and took pictures of the teams during a drink break, and I just assumed those were related.

I regularly had mandatory overtime that turned my 3 on 4 off/4 on 3 off 12 hour night shift work week into 6 on 1 off consistently, with the threat of getting fired hung over my head for insubordination if I didn't go in on my days off.

Lots of people actually do work 60-80 hour work weeks, the issue is that lots of other people who did that one time three years ago love to talk about how they "used to get into work every day at 5PM and not leave until 10 that evening".

It's like when CEOs say "I wake up at 4am every morning that's the secret to my success". No you don't, shut up.

I started getting up super early despite being a night owl because the horrific grind of corporate meetings starting at 9am would remove any ability I had to actually think about and accomplish work.

That said, then I go home early because gently caress more than 40 hours a week. Or take Friday off.

The idea that this is a huge accomplishment though is laughable.

You do understand it's not at the same job.

I knew several people who worked a full time job, then worked 6pm-12am at a part time job several nights a week, surviving off 5 hours of sleep or less most nights. They were easily hitting 60 hours a week, usually more depending on if they worked both weekends as well (they usually did)

When you have kids and major bills, you have to take whatever you can get, even if its working minimum wage for and extra 20 hours a week because the extra $700 a month could be keeping you from drowning.

Yeah my fiance works Boeing and is currently doing an 84-hr week because he gets exactly two days off this month, and until I managed to get help I was doing 70-80hr weeks as a caregiver. Now I just do 50+.

Nice seeing that the rich folk are still out of touch, though.
