What if you CAN'T just "go hardcore" at the drop of a hat because some jackass asks you to? What if you have a family to take care of? Or your own health? You sign on at a company for a solid 9-5 week with the expectation that there's going to be little, if any overtime, and that overtime would be on rare exceptions.
Then some jackass takes everything over and tells you to work twice as much or GTFO.
No dude, that's not "doing the minimum" or "being lazy" that's a drastic change. I don't think he should have gotten away with doing what he's doing.
I am very fucking proud of doing great work. I will even pull a few long days as needed to make something close or solve an issue. I'm not going to work 80 hour weeks. In fact, I think it's unethical to work those kind of hours - at some point you're going to ruin your long term health, the wellbeing of your family, and the quality of the work you produce. It's just all around foolish.
