160 hours a month? I remember having a part time job. All kidding aside, I can tell you aren’t American based on that statement alone.

- Toast_25 9y agoHow strong is the overworking culture in America? It's pretty strong here, but not too bad.
- darkmarmot 9y agoThey once let me go home to sleep, but then I got called back for a hot fix.
- ehnto 9y agoWe aimed to have two deploy brackets, Monday morning and Wednesday morning. If it is broken we roll back, fix it properly, redeploy at midday. If it can't be fixed in a day then it's properly broken and probably shouldn't have made it to release. I worked at that agency for four years and did perhaps two weekends of overtime. Bliss. It can be done, and in an agency environment with client expectations.
- dsfyu404ed 9y agoIt depends. If you've got a "throwaway skill-set" and they can hire any random CS grad to replace you after a month of training you had better answer your phone when they call at 2am. If you're time consuming and expensive to replace then feel free to put your phone on vibrate before you go to sleep.
- ruc0la 9y agoNever stated that I am American^^ Up to your profession but 8 hour is the standard here.
- driverdan 9y agoUnless you're a founder you shouldn't be working more than your employer pays you for, eg 40 hours.
