Wow. Sounds like a greedy capitalist. I would understand 995 if workers were properly compensated. But 996 is almost inhumane. It stuck me as the same tone as when Jeff Bezos defended Amazons work culture. I guess e-commerce must work with very thin margins.

The only person that should be working 996 are the founders. Everyone else should not be expected to work on the weekends.
