#1 - literally impossible

#2 - not being paid 110%

#3 - the company doesn't actually reward going above and beyond, and sometimes they punish you

We ain’t even being paid 100%. I checked what a vaguely comfortable lifestyle would be for my area and even the top earners in the field make nowhere near that number. They were paying me effectively 43%, it was a miracle I came back to work after lunch on Wednesdays.
