I HAVE TO WORK 70 HOURS A WEEK!

Retail, manufacturing, non-profit, charity: it doesn’t matter the field of endeavour, we’ve said this or know people who have said it. These people are super-dedicated, high-achievers, passionate about what they do and stubbornly refuse to admit that they are completely wrong. Anyone who consistently works these kinds of hours, either does so because they want to or because they can’t (or won’t) delegate.
