OMG! Julx, I did 80 hours per week once, as a non-exempt, for just 3 weeks straight a long time ago and it practically killed me. Doing those kind of hours for months as an exempt is really not healthy. I was worried before and I think I'm more worried now. I can't remember where you are, assuming I ever knew. In the U.S. it's legal for certain types of positions to be exempt and there is no cap on the hours worked without additional pay, though often they come with bonuses and other incentives, but such employees still have the right to say no to so many extra hours. Especially in right to work states. No job is worth your life or your health. Please remember that and don't let it get to that point. I do hope you get some relief in your job soon. And do take care of yourself. And if it ever gets to you, always know you can reach out to me on my message wall. In the meantime, get some rest whenever you can and know I'll be hoping for the best for you. 🙏
