    Any point in posting this ? Seems a bit of sour grapes considering you work for another dev company

    The company i work for i've done some 24 hour shifts, if i dont like it i'll leave. But at times i have to work crazy hours depending on deadlines.

    But like i say coming from a rival company it looks bad youre posting this

    Pussys. Ohh so hard sat in a million dollar offices or studios oh the hardwork must be terrible. I don't believe for 1second it's dangerous.

    Oil rigs, mining, flying maybe dangerous. Sat at a computer in a nice studio?...get to #### you crybabys.

    Being overworked "to dangerous levels" is the issue.

    And yeah, this is a pretty old article. :confused:

    "Starting at 9:30 AM, going home at 2:30 AM, and then coming back into the office at 8:30 AM to start work again was not unusual."

    I think I can smell bullshit

    Thanks for sharing the latest news with us. Not sure how you live with a calendar that has a two month lag.

    That just sounds like my college life at the moment. And I love it.
