if someone said that in reference to how much my gf works they would get an earful. if one of her boss/coworker said that to her they would get enough for all of them.

she has to support customer that are in the US, as well as Taiwan. How do you support someone who is 16hrs ahead without working into the night or on sundays (their monday).

not only that her work load is easily enough to overwhelm 3 people.

when she was gone on a business trip to taiwan for 16days, her boss and 2 other people covering for her (only her US accounts) couldn't handle it.

The end result was that, they decided to move this other person into my gfs US account.

So yeah the work is very necessary. only 8 hrs a day is the usual work hours but she has enough on her plate for easily double that amount.
