yup. did a 100 hour shift in my first job in computer ops. the entire staff had contracted the flu and in the process and time and time again reinfected every person we employed.
except me. so, I volunteered to stay until a healthy person came to relieve me. no one bothered to check to see if that ever happened...since most were home sick.
so...I worked until relieved....went home and passed out trying to untie my shoe. woke up 17 hours later..........with the flu. but with one hell of an overtime check.

truly...no good deed goes unpunished.
(and yes, about 3 days in, the halucinations were........impressive)

note: I did however employ various 'materials' to enable me to stay awake that long and would grab the occasional nap between reloading paper into the printer.
