Wouldn't want any surgeon doing a damn thing to me if they were over 50 hours.one of the surgeons I worked with said she used to work 100 hour weeks regularly

Seriously tho, at my former workplace for a lot of those folks that was their life, period. Like they came to work to socialize, thats where their friends were and everything. As a result I couldn't stand the politics. I was like "damb" at the whole scenario.my original comment wasn't about investment bankers - it was about Me. If you want to work obscene hours then that's great. Personally, I prefer to have a work/life balance.
For real.
Quality of work has to be trash once you exceed 60.
I don't even want to hear otherwise. Dudes are absolutely destroying their bodies, I don't see why we glorify people working suicide shifts as something admirable.
I work 40 and still think that's too much for someone to achieve that perfect work-life balance.
No, and I never will. After 50 hours it's not even worth it anymore.

It was absolutely worth it IMO. I was in Investment Banking for the last 5 years and I've learned more in those 5 years than I've ever learned while formally being in school. The skills, tools and lessons learned on the job helped me with every facet of my life. People ask me all the time if I could, would I go back and do something else. My answer has always been no. It was tough in the beginning and at the expense of having a personal life, but the benefits outweighed the negatives.
I've met some incredible people and had a chance to also see the world. Plus, the money was great. But only when I got to spend it
What do you mean on the set?How long is your workday on set? I've always wondered how much actual work goes into a show like His & Hers.
I worked 2 full time jobs for 9 months because I got laid off from my job 5 months after I bought a house. $1,700 a month mortgage with a car payment and everything else is not easy and I had no choice just to stay afloat.
One job was overnights. 4 days a week I was working 2:30pm to 7:30am between both jobs and would do overtime on weekends with the overnight job. Getting 4 hours of sleep on the reg wasn't fun at all. Unless your in that kind of situation I suggest not doing that unless saving for a house or something along the lines of that. Also make sure it's financially worth it.
Did u collect at all or no..and was it easy or hard finding 2 FT jobs..it seems finding 1 gig is tough for some
I think there is a difference between working hard and working too much. But, everyone wants different things out of their lives. For me, I have a stable job and career, make decent money (I'll never be "rich" but I'll probably max out at around 250k/yr - which I'm ok with), and have a decent work/life balance. I enjoy my work but I don't want it to be my life. I enjoy spending time with my wife, family and friends; traveling, and just trying to do what makes me happy. And that includes not working all the time. What's right for me might not be right for the next person.To the people talking about working hard being a negative....
is that because you aren't seeing returns you deserve for your work?
Most self made people spent a lifetime working hard...
I don't think Arnold Schwarzenegger is gonna be on his deathbed wishing he spent more time on vacation...
You cant compare a celebrities type of work lifestyle to someone who works in a office type setting....

I guess it has more to do with people working jobs that aren't satisfying/don't give equal return....You cant compare a celebrities type of work lifestyle to someone who works in a office type setting....
