Over one whole month, so that's more like 61 hours per week. Which, judging by the rest of the comments in this thread, isn't unexpected for a Japanese white collar worker.

How many of us know people in North America who are putting in those kinds of hours? You know, gotta "go the extra mile" for the startup, and all.


Hell, I spent the month of December on a "karoshi" project with types of hours. Fuck that! I took two week off to recover. At least they paid me overtime for the hours between 45 and 60, which is highly unusual.
