I am even more disappointed by that guy's choice to work only 6 days a week.

I do not believe in sleep or rest.

I firmly believe that CEOs require diapers, not toilet breaks.

I used to shit myself continuously at the office, the stench was unbearable. And yet I went on, staying at my desk, asking people to come in to berate them.

I chose to be estranged by my whole family. My kids hate me. My wife despises me. My father won't talk to me. Even my mother loathes me.

I managed all that by dedicating every second of my life to my job, so that I can die miserably and get a gravestone saying 'lmao the shitman's dead, rest in shit loser'.

if it took him 91 hours a week to do his job, they probably should have let him go.

Men like this do not understand the magic of the world around them 😔

This isn't that difficult if your only job is reading emails and giving one word replies like Yes, No, Proceed, or Delay

Which is all the guys at that level do.

I have to suffer, so the other people should do that, too.

Just to add more context, this shithead's daughter is the wife of the British PM.

I hated working with a team in India because of their insane work expectations. I'd be online in the morning my time, knowing it's basically the middle of the night for them. I'd say things weren't a high priority but they'd still stay online and finish it that day (that sort of stuff). Then they'd basically work first thing when they woke up as well. It was really frustrating in a weird way. I shouldn't have to resist communicating with a coworker because I suspect they're going to ruin their work life balance to do something I ask them to (even when I make it clear it's a low priority). But I can't just not communicate things that need to be done or ask questions I need answers to. It really sucked.

Like imagine your friend is asleep and you're at their house. You want some coffee at some point so you just shoot them a text message asking where it is in the kitchen as you go back to bed to wait for them to wake up. Next thing they dart out of their room, groggy, apologizing for over sleeping, and begin making you a whole ass latte. Then imagine them doing stuff like this so often that you're nervous to ask them to do things so they don't drop everything to assist. Now imagine they're a coworker so you must communicate tasks to them. That's sort of what it felt like.

It’s like a recipe for becoming a fuckhead.

Let me guess: he was 30 when that picture was taken.

"I hated my life, if I had any, and so will you"

Did he fly to work on the back of a dragon as well?

Fuck you. I am whoring out my brainpower and will do only what I’m paid for. If it happens to take only an hour each workday, that’s not my concern.

Anybody that deep in that awfulness is of course going to try to play it off like a badge of honor. So hard to see it for what it is from there.

Only 13% of adults in India have attainted tertiary education vs 17% in China, and 50% in the U.S. Explains where the bulk of productivity is in those countries, hard and blue collar labor. So this explains this guy’s pov, he basically wants to exploit labor as hard as possible.

Republicans want to create that kind of system here in the U.S. because they’re convinced that you don’t need an educated population to maintain US GDP supremacy, completely neglecting that the bulk of US services are centered around work that’s not hard labor or blue collar related. Even if the U.S. makes a transition to blue collar or hard labor work in the next decade, it will never attain the same kind of productivity as India and China in this respect because of the different cultural make up of these respective countries…unless, there’s a brain drain and people who want a higher quality of life abandon ship to a non-factory country.

But importantly, the reason China and India have that kind of GDP output given their respective focus in the first place is precisely because the U.S. focuses its attention on financial and technical innovation. So if everyone shifts to pushing hard labor, then what happens? Someone’s going to have to pick up the slack, and it’s likely going to be the EU unless Russia steam rolls over them.

The way nations and their leaders decide to do things is interesting, often to the detriment of sane long term investments.

if you remember the faces of your children you have failed as a salaryman

What's the point? If you're not enjoying your life and you think everyone else should be doing this too so it's not like your "sacrifice" is so that they can enjoy life, then what are you working for?

In reality you are just addicted to making money so what you are saying is "I do drugs and so should everyone"

How's that working out for your country, Narayan?

Let's see...

India over here in the third world, despite his 14hr days and no work life balance.

Germany over here in the first world with 8ish hour days and a very good work life balance.

I say this with no disrespect to people of his group that are unlike him... Ok, boomer.

How do you maintain a 14 hour schedule in half a day?

What the actual fuck?

I'm just gonna leave this here.

Gus Johnson Working Man vibes.

You know some jobs could do that if it wasn't mentally or physically taxing. If you're waiting around because your processes suck you can do so called long hours.

pakistan and africa agree with him completely
