Would you work 60-70 hours per week for $90,000 a year salary?

If you would then you’re not working for 90k.

That’s what one of my associates does and I told her she need to ask for more pay. I told him she really making 52k a year with no overtime pay. He be working 11 hours a day 5 days a week and that’s not including commute time which is about 30 min each way. Some weeks she works 6 days a week. Managing a car wash. Dude be tired all the time and hates his job. When I broke down his time traveling and spending at work by the hourly rate he just looked at me like :dahell:

Companies take advantage of salaries workers. They will offer 80k and up, but have you working crazy ass hours.

Salary is different from hourly. If you agree to be paid 90k a year for a certain type of work, that’s how much you’re paid. You’re not supposed to calculate the hours actually being worked.

Salary is a scam anyways, for this very reason. But no, I wouldn’t do what your gender fluid friend is doing. :mjlol:

No!

It is possible to make more than that with less work hours if you invest in your education or certain desirable trade skills.

The heights
I’m a truck driver and most of us work 11 to 14 hours a day depending on your position (OTR,LTL,food delivery,line haul etc) so it depends i have no problem working 6am to 6pm or 7am to 7pm as long as my commute is short and honestly back in my warehouse days I always worked 10 to 12 hours it isn’t that bad as long as I got my weekends off I was cool
