35 year old banker worked to death

[Quasar44]

Whenever it came out. I don't recall the year, but 79 sounds right. It was a date, and the young lady nearly cost Me My arm. She was holding on so tight.

You must have loved the movie . I have seen it like 30 times including the last week 45th anniversary

I've watched it a few times, but to be honest, I haven't seen it in about 15 years or more.

It’s aged too much and I grew up with Aliens

I still consider it a gold standard for how to make a movie that will keep the view guessing on what is going to happen next.

When I first started driving a truck, back in the outlaw trucker days, three log books, 15 to 17 hours a day and 100+ hours a week was the norm.

$10,000+ a week made it all worth while.

Those days are long gone. Technology has transformed the industry.

No way I go into trucking today as a young man or as a career.

The money isn't near as good, you're under surveillance at all times... by shippers if you own your own trucks, companies if you're a company driver and drivers are idiots in both cars and semis.

The golden age of trucking is long gone.

Wall Street banker’s death at 35 ignites firestorm over alleged grueling 100-hour work weeks

Many on Wall Street are quick to link his passing to a culture they believe values wealth over wellbeing.

Has anybody worked 100 hours a week for several weeks ??

My last 6M at my UPS Store I worked 50 hours a week

Yeah, when I worked in the oilfield 95 to 110 hour work weeks were common.

All trucks newer than 2000 are required to install an Electronic Logging Device.

Company drivers have driver facing cameras pointing at them during all drive time. They can be monitored real time.

Many shippers require independents and owner operators to download tracking app to there cellphones like map-point.

Between travel time and working from home, I frequently exceeded 80 hours per week or more prior to retirement, especially in my last year.
