There have been many times I've wanted to quit this job because I couldn't hang out with my friends.

    So her parents, agent, management team, and others in her professional life don't mind working here 365 days a year for 12 years nonstop? Nice people. Can you say 'burn out' and 'karoshi' (death from overwork) and 'stupid'?
