120 hours is absurd, what's the point of being alive when you get zero free time.

Pro tip: get 'em in on the drive to the jobsite. If you wait until you get there, some bitchy customer could make trouble for you.

I've done it before due to greed, but only in short stints. After a week you're just not a person anymore, it's just sleep work eat work sleep and your brain disintegrates.

I'll never understand either. Unless you are on call and getting paid, why work after hours? But I think zoomers are being told to work as much as possible so you can retire at 40 but you should be having a good time in your 20s or you will feel really unfulfilled at 40.

Not just zoomers falling for hustle shit but just people with no backbone who don't get say anything or get pissy when getting overworked or having to do more hours. Basically managers become just bullies either intentionally or not to the kitty employee

Smart managers hire tards, then fire them the next year. Keeps morale up for the rest of the team.

when i worked for a big multimillion dollar VC moneypit app company in the UK/EU a few years ago, the only thing I ever got told off for was for offhandedly raising the possibility that i might be able to work late to finish something. i got taken aside by my (french) team lead and told never to do that again, especially not in front of the juniors. meanwhile if you wanted to get ahead you could work late of your own volition and the company would reward you for it.
the US does have insane pay but the conditions are also insane

If people start working overtime because they're late on a project, it's just gonna hide from management the fact that the team is lacking in manpower. The day these guys leave, all of a sudden the whole team is falling behind.
It's especially bad because labor costs are really high here and employers are already reluctant to hire new folks. If you give them any reason not to, they won't.
It can be necessary from time to time but overall, if it can't be done working normal hours, then it just means you need more people. Asking people to work overtime is not a fix, it's just gonna lead to more stress, more burnouts, less productivity and people leaving - the exact opposite from what you want.

I'm so glad I don't have to be on call anymore. Never again. I've always been overtime exempt at every job I've had to do it and there's not much I hate more than working for free.

I'm on call almost 24/7 but it's so expensive that I don't get many urgent service requests.
Being self employed I make it a point to never work for free

Even with on call duty I don't have any communicators or email set up on my phone. I'm not reading that shit outside of work hours, and if something is important enough to wake me up at 2am then call me to tell me about it.

I work this much in a job that involves traveling around and wrangling wagies.
Its worse during the holidays because the corpos start showing up randomly and trying to get me on shit so i have to play defense in like 6 stores because theyre r-slurred.
I worked 22 days straight leading up to easter lol.
I cant imagine killing myself over it.
Its definitely awful and I want to move up as soon as possible.
Sadly the district im in is headed by a hyper competitve adderall addict and he keeps us in a constant state of war against corporate.
He challenges everything and dunks on them constantly. Hes also almost invariably right so i guess it works out
I knew i was in for a wild ride when he interviewed me and kept randomly saying "im not even talking about integrity" which i took as him telling me to be as shady as possible
