In January, they started having voluntary Saturday workdays, with the mantra "In March, the hours will get shorter".
In February, the Saturdays became mandatory, with a volunteer Sunday, with the mantra "Sundays will never be mandatory".
Now it's March, and Sunday is mandatory, with the mantra "If you work harder, you won't have to do as many hours".
This "temporary backlog" has lasted since October, and they keep accepting more work from Apple. We're way past capacity.
What a shitty company.
[edit: I thought it pertinent to add that we're also currently required to work 11-hour days. So, including Sunday, that's up to 77 hours. insanity.]

They're actually very easy to work on. If you know what you're doing, it might take you 20-30 minutes to replace a logic board, the most common repair.
The P99's are the worst from a repair perspective; they have something like 56 screws to take off just to replace the board. They take more time than the rest, but still aren't difficult.
