Default My job is crazy... :(

so i got hired a couple weeks ago with another guy from my school to work for a company called giant killer robots...

The job started as a 5 day / 50 hr per week job that would go until May 27th...there was a stipulation that it could go to 6day/60hr after a couple weeks...

so last week it becomes 6/60, ok, no big deal...i am a full time student so im working Tuesday to Sunday cuz i have class all day monday...

I just heard from the guy i work with that we are going to 7day /70 hr per week until the end of the project...

HOLY [censored]...its a kickass job, but thats crazy...

not sure what kind of advice or comments i want, maybe some ideas for needing to sleep lesss since i have finals + work...meh, oh well...

Game company, right?

Did you make a distribution deal with the devil ::cough:: I mean, EA?

My advice is, unionize.

God, I hate the unions. Anyway, most of these movie jobs are already highly unionized.
