That’s not true at all for white collar jobs. You’d bring your work home in a briefcase and work on it after the kids went to bed.

And if was a blue collar job you got overtime. This job expected you to work onsite 80 hours a week.

I would argue that getting a double salary compared to most other white collar jobs counts enough as overtime.
