I would think it could be compared to drowning. Then, instead of a life preserver, your staffer hands you 2 sell sides.
The European ones are slightly less sweaty than the American ones but only in relative measure.
I don't know about NYC times, but people leave at 5 am and then come back before 9 am, because I swear people here operate off zero sleep. We've stolen goddamn Japanese culture, including the stupid death from overwork aspect.
