noahgibbs: Me and my teddy bear at Karaoke after a day of RubyKaigi in HIroshima in 2017 (monkey scientist)

I don't put in 18+-hour days at work very often. This is one more way to discover that on my team at NVidia, I'm definitely a slacker.

And I'm currently creeping from "18" to "+". Sleep before this evening will be a good and advisable thing.

Fricken' customers :-P

Projects, customer demands, deadlines, stuff like that. Though even I think 18+ hours is excessive. (The longest I've been here in one go was 14 hours, and that was mostly because I hit a groove and became superproductive, although a looming deadline had something to do with it too.)

The thing is, around here, there are people who happily spend weekends and holidays in the office, and there are people who seem to be on 30-hour days (or worse). While it's understandable that some may not want to "compete" with these guys, in general, most of the office puts in somewhat more than 40 hours a week, and if you're not doing the same then you're not pulling around the same around of weight.
