Pushing past 48 hours week is just wrong. Just is. If that's Industry Standard, that industry is exploitive.
EDIT: Sorry if I was a bit harsh -- but why is your time less important than the company's? I mean, they must think you're important enough to hire for your time. They don't want to pay for value-added time or they can't? If they can't then they're relying on you too much. I mean, they run they company don't they? Maybe you have more real clout than you've been lead to believe.

Part of it is the nature of the industry. If one works for a company that allows you to manage one's own time, what happens if that person needs to put extra hours in to complete their job. Will workers simply make sure they don't get their jobs done in order to cash in on the OT?
