I'm not sure what he's doing, but the regular workers told him they put in 60-70 hour work weeks. He really doesn't like that, especially unpaid OT. As an intern, he gets paid OT.
Kids these days. When I worked, 60 hours was the norm, until I got a gov't job. lol

Problem is that throughout their school lives, they are drilled into their heads that work is only 8 hours a day and not more. unpaid overtime? Working weekend is for the birds. Those poor kids
