A quick succession of unhealthy and short-lived generations will keep the labour market as well supplied as a series of vigorous and long-lived generations.
It's done by lots of people, I know 5 or 6 around me that work 2 full time jobs with offset schedules. It's an 80hr work week, usually 6 or 7 days working.
Some people just do it because they don't plan on doing it for long and just want to have extra money, but there are lots that need it to survive because the average wage is barely enough to feed yourself let alone get housing. Wages are around $1000-$1300/month and rent is usually between $1000 and $2000 depending. With studio apartments going for closer to $1200.
Only way to live is with roommates or some financial assistance, or you work 2 jobs. One for your rent and another for food.
8 hours a day is already detrimental to physical and mental health but can be maintained for a long time. 12 hours will fuck you up after a time. 16 or more is entering the range of physical extermination. For comparison, in Marx time one of Britain industrial centers (Manchester or Liverpool i think) had average lifespan of worker at 15 years. Yes, fifteen.
Morning shift and night shift. A bartending job that starts at 5:30 coupled with a 9-5 is common
is that humanly possible? because i think after a certain time, you would just fall sick, wouldn't you?

Absolutely. But they don’t care generally unless it’s a job that few have the skills or tolerance to do
