Back when I was a Power Generation Field Engineer, I worked lots of OT. The startup at Pawtucket RI was an OT bonanza.

Let's see. Dec 27, 1990 to March 29th, 1991. And I had been working straight since Thanksgiving. I got "2 days" off for Christmas. And I lost a week of vacation!

5+31+28+29=92

All of January was 100+ hour weeks. I'm pretty sure I maxed out at 108 one week. And yep, I was paid for OT. 1st-wife stole it all!!!
