When I worked in the Shipyard, we worked some hot jobs 24/7, and were always told to hurry up. Most of them were finished and just sat, collecting dust, for a long time after. Everyone got overtime though.
In the Pentagon, there was always a mad rush to complete projects that were behind schedule because they were not planned properly, and many of them had their funding borrowed for other jobs before we even started, then management had the audacity to say we used all the manhours up!
I worked a commercial job, and quality was secondary to speed, so I quit and worked for a madman in residential that was 6 years older than me and could not get anyone to keep up with him. He was always in a hurry, but made very little mistakes.
He always told me to hurry up, but he never compromised quality.
