      He’s not crazy.

      He directly benefits from the 70 hours of his workers. He’s manipulative, not crazy.

        Three years ago he called for young people to work 60 hours a week. He’s just stepping up his entitled requirements now.

      A couple of years ago I worked roughly 65 hours a week for like two months because we were understaffed. I told my boss he had to find someone new as soon as possible. He said he wasn’t even looking. „Everything is fine! You just have to change your methods and work smarter!“

      I immediately quit, drove to my doc, told him the story and sat at home for the rest of the period of notice.

      Seriously, fuck that guy.

      A week after I was hired by my company, I was working 70 hour weeks for 6 weeks on an 8 day rotation. After that, it was 60 hour weeks for a month. Needless to say, I had a mental health crisis.
