It's a gruelling schedule, which is part of why they make mistakes.”

What puzzled me, though, was Jo's column (on The Apprentice website) this week in which she was writing about the stress of participating in The Apprentice and how it wears you down as the days turn into weeks and the weeks turn into months.

Maybe she was not being strictly accurate, but I did wonder about her writing that.
