I’ve done one 110 hour work week. Once. It is possible.

I did tell the manager to foxtrot oscar shortly after that week.

I did 100 then an 80, only because someone set fire to my workplace and they told us insurance was covering overtime.... I basically just sat at the entrance and turned people away.

Haha, been there as well. Took advantage of unlimited overtime for an easy job, but no way is it sustainable in the long term. I was waking up and clocking in immediately, only clocking out to eat and sleep.
