Well, my second big crunch period before a deadline just passed. I just put in 80 hours of work last week, including 3 nights where I worked till past 4am the next day. Other than my grandmas funeral on Saturday, I effectively worked continuously through Thursday, Friday and Saturday and into Sunday morning; I had 4 hours of sleep in a 43 hour period. I ended up missing all my church meetings since I slept till 2pm.
The good side though is that I get my compensation time after this is all done in November, and I get all of December off.
I worked as a tester in the video games industry, and the hours can be harsh. I feel for you.
