Can you spot the red flag in this hiring interview statement?

My sister has gone on so many job hunts and is really not good at catching red flags when managers say them, so she's resorted to recording interviews so I can listen to them afterward and tell her if I think it's worth the trouble. This is a quote from her latest job search. The guy speaking is a manager and he's talking about working in 2 different franchise locations of the same restaurant. One in an arena, the other a normal location. “I kinda get my 40 hours in here, and I then work like an extra 20 hours at the arena. So I work like a 60 hour workweek. Without having to go into overtime here.” She said she got “bad vibes” from the interview but couldn't place why. Any takers?
