As an employee hell no. I've done a couple of crunches, but efficiency tanks. Plan better, be more agile, solve the immediate issues rather than getting fancy, so much one can do instead.

No, but if I got paid overtime I'd absolutely do it (or something more reasonable like 50-60 hrs/week)

You couldn't pay me enough to sacrifice so much of my life for someone else's business.

996 hours a year? Sure.

I wasn't put on Earth to create shareholder value. Work is the means to an end. The less of it I have to do, the better.

No. I can understand doing so if it's your own company and you have a significant % of the business. But if you are an employee it does not make sense, you will not gain the time back

I'm not getting paid by the hour, so hell no.

If I was paid hourly, hell no.

Yes, I do 996 hours per year. That is exactly 83 hours per month, and as a prime, management can’t divide it any further.

I did that and more when I was trying to get my startup off the ground, but never since and never again.

what is this 'work' you speak of?

No.

But my agents are.
