Why do people always say "Oh, these poor little hard-hardwoking devs deserve a break" ?
It's their job!

Whether or not they're doing overtime, which they're probably getting paid for, which some of them probably are happy about.
Which is probably not enforced, although from what people say pressure to meet workplace's expectations is high in japan from what people say.
And finally, if they want to ease the workload, they should just expand their budget.

It's about time companies start putting customers first again. Reputation is worth more than most people think.


Edit: OH AND! Imagine if they did and content got delayed and cut out, imagine the shitstorm!
