like hell those days. I got to my lab by 7am, sometimes got home at midnight. I lived nearby. I got 2 patents and some okay papers published. I didn't complain much for the hard work, cause it was worthwhile after all. My boss is a Jewish guy, very push. I guess not much better than the Chinese boss. But you have to think this way, if you don't try, nobody is going to give you a free lunch.
Don't blame anybody, your future is in your hand. GL.
