    A few years ago when I was ambitious and we were paying down debt I worked everyday from Jan 1 to Good Friday. Weekends were days and Sunday was a split, 6 or 7 hours in the morning come back at 10pm and do 9 more. Nice checks but it takes a toll.

    Fuckers! They think we should all work until we die!

    Back when we did 50 to 75% of our own outage work we would do multiple 7 day a week, 10 hour days for 2 to 3 months but that was back in my younger days making a fraction of what I do now. The money was good then and it bought a lot of toys but as I look back on it I would volunteer to do it again.

    I would walk, then file a "Constructive Discharge" suit. Making your life hell at work until you quit is illegal. Is their treatment of you unusual?

    Federal law. They can't make your job so unpleasant that you quit. If they are harrasing an employee with the intent to get that employee to quit it is in violation. Constructive Discharge is the legal term.

    The hardest night is usually the first one. However the the first one of six pack is always the hardest.
