Good-bye, good-bye, my dear fellow; don't overwork yourself-your fortune is made. I have taken it in hand."
Adieu, adieu, mon cher, ne vous prodiguez pas, votre fortune est faite, je m’en charge.»

His hair was much greyer and very thin about the temples, and there were lines of overwork below the eyes. But the eyes were the same as before, keen and kindly and shrewd, and there was no change in the firm set of the jaw.
Ses cheveux étaient très gris et clairsemés près des tempes, mais les yeux restaient les mêmes: vifs, perçants, et pourtant bienveillants. Sa mâchoire carrée était toujours vigoureuse.

What it was that was actually the matter with us, we none of us could be sure of; but the unanimous opinion was that it - whatever it was - had been brought on by overwork.
En fait, aucun de nous ne savait ce qu’il avait ou n’avait pas ; par contre, nous avions tous la certitude que le mal – quel qu’il fût – était la conséquence du surmenage.

I told Paddock a fine story about how my friend was a great swell, with his nerves pretty bad from overwork, who wanted absolute rest and stillness.
Je racontai à mon Paddock une belle histoire comme quoi mon ami, «une grosse légume», avait les nerfs très abîmés par l'excès de travail, et qu'il lui fallait un repos et une tranquillité absolus.

The suffering of caregivers starts with overwork and the exhaustion it causes.
La souffrance des soignants est générée par la surcharge et par l'essoufflement qui en résulte, lequel crée un sentiment d'impuissance.

There are desperate men against us, who will not respect the country retreat of an overworked official.'
Nos adversaires sont des hommes résolus à tout, qui ne respecteraient pas la retraite campagnarde d'un homme d'État surmené.

Then he complained of being overworked. Four sittings a week, from eleven to five; always the same skein of bickerings to unravel, it ended by destroying all feeling in one's heart.
Alors, il se plaignit d'être accablé: quatre audiences par semaine, de onze heures à cinq heures; toujours les mêmes écheveaux de chicanes à débrouiller; ça finissait par dessécher le coeur.

A sullen, overworked, and - despite increased surveillance and tough, state-backed, managerial controls - often recalcitrant work-force was the outcome.
De ce fait, la force de travail était maussade, surmenée et -malgré une surveillance accrue et des contrôles draconiens avec le soutien de la puissance publique - souvent récalcitrante.
