Are you sure you want to compete in a global economy? Are you even man enough? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

The article doesn't state whether the worker was forced to work those hours or if he volunteered. Interesting none the less.

Simple cause and effect. They do have entirely different ethical and sociological stance on how they treat "work". Its kinda sad really //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Werd. I've worked way more hours than that at various jobs. 72-90 hours/week when it's really busy or during inventory.

Wow, that's pretty pissy. 65 hours a week caused him to die? Whatever... I've worked nearly double that on several occasions and well over that for extended periods at a time.

Hell, resident physicians are limited to 80 hours a week (averaged over 4 week periods).... how does that make you feel about the bleary-eyed doc writing admission orders for your grandma when she goes in the hospital? lol

Of course, once you get out of residency, the restrictions are lifted. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Anybody else find it ironic that the add on the right of the article is for Toyota vehicles?
