    Yes but the schedule says it should be done so we need to make it happen or the company will go bust. Come on guys we need you to work harder, everyone is putting in overtime to make this happen and you are being negative and telling us you can’t do it, what are we paying you for?

          Just need to pump those numbers up. Pay me $2000/hr and I’ll work 12 hour shifts. Pay me $4000/hr and I’ll work 24 hour shifts. $10k/hour and you’ll have me doing a 60 hour work day.

          Don’t ask how it happens. Just trust me and pay me six months upfront.

        I’ve worked at companies where I swear to fucking good the middle managers just don’t sleep at all.

        I’m getting calls at 3am and asking how you even woke up, and I get told they never went to sleep.

        Incidentally, also had three managers in that role inside twelve months. And then it just laid vacant for two years afterwards.
