My old boss, a scientist at a university doing biomedical research, worked 70-80 hour weeks. His grad student brought a SLEEPING BAG to work.

A friend's husband working in a healthcare start-up works about that much. He gets home in time for dinner and his kids' bedtime, and then goes to his home office and works until 3 am. He doesn't need a lot of sleep.

People like you who don't believe others' hard work disgust me. Just because *you* couldn't do it doesn't mean no one can.[/quote]

The fact that you think working like that is laudable disgusts me. [/quote]

Learn to read. 
[b]I didn't say it was laudable.[/b]
I said you mustn't automatically think people are telling lies.
[b]Respect people's choices and their hard work.[/b]

You're talking out of both sides of your mouth here (like most people who claim to work 100 hours a week).[/quote]

First, I don't work that much.
Second, it depends on what kind of work the person does, why they do it, and if their family is OK with it (if they have family), that makes it laudable or not. Purely a matter of personal judgement.

And stop trolling. [/quote]
