It's not an official job requirement, just an insidious and constantly reiterated norm, that each of us will offer 25% extra time to our employer, gratis.

How much money does the head of the company make? Unless you guys are being paid in *profit shares*, you're being underpaid. I might even say "stolen from".

The only *possible* meaning of "How can we be more efficient?" that isn't grossly insulting is, "we need to toss 20% of what we're trying to do, to get back to 40 hour weeks."
