Quite frankly working those sorts of hours is either grossly inefficient
or the sign of someone who is solely chasing obscene amounts of money
with no regard to their well being or else someone in a very low paid
job and virtually no employment rights. None of them is an attractive
prospect nor are they relevant or appropriate in an organisation where
safety is a key factor in the service that the public use.

There are plenty of hard working people in LU and being macho about the
quantity of hours anyone puts in is silly.

Bleh. I'm aware that it's not a good idea for train drivers to put in
80-hour weeks; it just rather rankles when people [not Paul C] who
know very little about how professional services firms work or what
they do assume that people in these jobs don't work hard...
