The true evil of Ticketmaster is that their fees are non-refundable. I purchased tickets to a concert that was later canceled. The cost of the ticket was refunded, but I was stuck paying for the fees.
I feel long hours are more of a side effect of success than a cause of it. If you love what you do, you tend to do more of it, and people see that. But doing more of a job you don't love won't necessarily make you more successful. Haven't we all known a coworker who put in long hours but wasn't producing value?
