The CEO of WeWork claims to work almost 20 hours a day in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5tSINazw78 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5tSINazw78). Its impossible to do unless you are spending your time doing light work. Any intensive work that requires brain power will burn you out after 10+ hours. And to do it consistently day in and day out is impossible. I work 7 days a week averaging 10+ hours a day. I can barely hit 18 hours doing straight intensive work, and my day after suffers.

- rando444 8y agoIf a potential candidate tried to tell me that they had no problem and even enjoyed working 20 hours a day, I wouldn't hire them because they are demonstrating that they are clearly incapable of basic organizational skills.
- rqs 8y agoMaybe the candidate just trying to show their passion and they just not completely trusted you, so they're not sure about the answer. Or the candidate may have just failed another interview hours ago because he said he enjoyed working 8 or 12 hours a day, and lose the faith of humanity all together. You'll never know why they've generated that answer if you don't ask a follow up question.
