Working hours.

"The bags under my eyes have combined to form some kind of face backpack."

"Where are you guys going?" "We’re out of here!" "It’s October 28th!" "The new team are running late. We need you to stay until February 2025!" "But I’m tired!!" "How do we know they won’t bail on us again?"

"It's no good - I just can't do this without a brief and a deadline."

'This is just an informal pledge that we all go through.'

Pull an all-nighter?

"I think I see your deadline approaching."

Pull and all nighter...

"Sure I can make that deadline."

'He's been working on this around the clock for weeks. Not a happy camper.'

"All night I dreamed I was at work. Do I get overtime for that?"

'Creepy, yes. But on the other hand, he's never missed a deadline.'

'My management philosophy is simple. Get the paperwork properly filled out and submitted on time.'

Emergency. I'm sorry, sir, we don't do taxes here.
