Big in Japan: Man works himself to death, company compensates wife {Gadling}

Dec 10th 2007 7:42PM During my last deployment to Iraq I worked at least 128 hours of overtime (based on the standard 40 hour work week) every month for a full year. It is a wonder I did not die from that. Then again, the Army will tell you that you are a soldier 24/7. My best wishes go out to all the servicemembers who are still serving over there. Stay safe.
