Working more than 12 hours in a day is SUICIDE

I do know the feeling. Working more than 12 hours can be very difficult. It's certainly not something that I enjoyed doing. I did do, as I had to. Luckily, it was only for a short period of time. It's not something that I want to do very often at all.

oh yes, staying more than required hours in the office is of course not healthy. You would be suffering from a lot of stress and we know that stress causes a lot of unnecessary things and ailments too, right?

Good day to you VICEcaholic, Well, if I will be given again a work with that schedule of 12 hours, perhaps, I would love it and appreciate it thoroughly since my situation here in our home is not as harmonious as it was. And my mom pushes me hardly to go out to have an office job, so maybe if I will be in your position, my mom will somehow appreciates my stay here. Although, I know how you feel since I was in that position before. That, the time of my life just go around my work and cannot do anymore a thing that will somehow give me life and relaxation. The reason why, I just want to work now a days as a freelancer, because I was in that situation before and it was really really tiring. Aside from that, at the end of the day, you will just come home and find yourself empty and boring.

You were inclined with your work habit. It's hard to be able to stop from not doing things like those you've said. But, they were all in our memory. I think that we need to work our mind and body as well together in the same time. If I knew I have had too much, it's time for me to say that I have had enough. I do think I don't want anymore, so I stop doing and trying to find other things like resting from our job for while, going out with friends and have a party. We must enjoy and importantly you know how to live happily and knew to do it as well. Enjoy your life.

What can I say? One word, production. Because you are working for someone, it is different than if you were in control but imagine if it was your own business. It is true that some self-employed small businesses are like this. I try to regulate myself but have found as well that over work is destructive. I've been successful working in spurts with breaks in between so that long hours don't kill me. Plus you can be so interested in your job that it does not seem to be too hard until it is, then you just need to take a break. I understand some Japanese factories in the last decade found that production actually went up when employees were given breaks when they needed them, even to the extent of providing cots for naps during a work day. So perhaps it is a worthwhile consideration for the worker not to overwork, for their continued health and also to be good workers for the company. Someone, might need to improve the quality of production by trying different methods to reduce negative stress in the work place. - drop this by email to a manager there?

Your Department of Labor should know that. It shouldnt be allowed unless you love doing it. you deserve a leave, a trip to wherever you wanna go.

I used to worked longer hours and sometimes it even takes 20 hours a day. For 2 years, I felt like my world only evolves inside our company. My best priority is our company so to be able not to have pending work, i rendered over time and most of it are not paid. I didn't even have night life during my 2 years of stay in the company. I felt that I had missed many things in my life because of the longer hours I stayed in my job. But when I finally had a courage to resign, I felt freedom. Now, I can handle my time freely and I am not able to render force over time anymore.
