Archana. Is that a woman or a spider? Sounds like whatever it is, it should do fine working for the Boston Consluting Group. I don’t think much of MBA conslutants.

Anytime someone tells me they have been working 14 to 16 hours a day I first consider them a liar. Nobody can sustain that for long. I’ve treid, you eventually crash. 21 to 28 days is about all you can stand out on a rig like that when you are in trouble.

A combat nap does wonders. Yes, Edison took naps.

In the military, I sometimes worked 16-20 hour days...for a week, maybe two. But if you get 4 hours of sleep a night, it WILL take a tremendous toll on most people. I’ve sat in planning meetings where folks were so tired that a question would be followed by 2 minutes of silence as everyone tried to figure out even a simple answer.

I did have a professor who couldn’t sleep more than 4 hours a night, but there are very few like him.
