          Probably, yeah. I worked at a bank during staffing issues and was scheduled for 65 hour weeks, but even that wasn’t enough time. I usually hit 75. No overtime pay. I spent an hour every night applying for jobs and took the first offer out of there.

          My job is very behind on the workload right now that working 120 hour weeks as an individual would maybe get us caught up but no way in hell would I do that. Im surprised this person’s manager even let them do it, my manager would have told somebody that it isn’t worth it and to find a balance.

        It’s just impossible to stay focused that long.

        Did they need just a warm body to be present?
