  • Speaking from personal experience, you might find that you are more productive and alert if you allow yourself an hour a day to exercise.

    Very much this too @TGR
    It's very unlikely that you're able to give anything close to your best if you're slogging away for 16 hours a day. There's plenty of evidence to support regular exercise and breaks/naps halfway through the day.
    Can be tough to shift the perception that more is always better in terms of being available, but it also shows that your work have fucked up in making you a single point of failure, and I'd wager you don't have the time or headspace to do anything but react to requests right now.
    Again, easy to say, but I'd expect 12 hours a day, 1 hr exercise and 3 hours more sleep would see you getting more done than 16 hours a day and no time for anything else. (and 12 hours is still a lot)

  • I agree. We have staffing issues to compound everything. Literally there aren’t enough hours in the day to get things done but that is the position we have been left in. I need to get something sorted to address the issues involved but currently any solution is a long way off.

  • If you're agreeing to work the hours you are then you're part of the problem ;)

    Or, put more kindly, you need to force the issue or they'll take the piss.
