    Bruh, your golf business meetings, lunches, drinks, clubs, gamblin, parties, and anything other than sitting in front of a computer going meeting after meeting with 5 minute lunch and then coming home to make dinner or do chores and deal with shopping or family issues without extra help is a mistake.

    When you can do what we do for the pay we get, let’s talk. Until then, kindly suck on deez nutz.

    He’s absolutely right. That’s why he should come work for me on his weekends. I’ll pay him $15/hr!

    What? He won’t work for that? Lazy CEO.

    These people, like Musk, think laying on a couch with a pen in your hand pondering about random shit to be hard work. That’s where they come up with this kind of BS. That and being from a higher cast and never having worked a single honest day in his life and making a fortune out of corruption and networking.

      And sitting on the couch with their dicks in their hands is “hard work” for them, but it’s just jerking off for the rest of us. These assholes consider themselves working when they sleep, because them being rested is “good for the business”.

        Uh, I think you mean “meditation” and “mindfulness”

    I agree weekends were a mistake.

    It should have always been 2 on 1 off, 2 on 2 off.

    The problem with statements like this is that they only ever seem to be made by narcissists who thinks work is only those efforts that directly benefit them. The end of my “work day” is when I start my other job of working for myself. I manage my home, I take care of my garden, I put effort into maintaining or improving my physical and mental well being, I foster and build the relationships in my life that I care about, etc. All of that is work, it’s just work that I do for myself and don’t get a paycheck for.

    Just because he is an idiot who never worked a day in his life and so doesn’t know that your productivity goes down significantly without relaxation that doesn’t mean that anyone should listen to that drivel.

      It’s not about productivity. If that were the real goal then the entire system would be structured radically differently, given what we know now through actual research. The real goal is ensuring that workers do not have ample time or energy to collectively organize. Make sure they don’t have the time to even think about anything else, and you ensure they damn sure don’t have the time to rebel. The other goal is ensuring there are a significant number of unemployed people in terrible enough conditions to make them desperate, but not so terrible that they are incapable of working. That way if s few stray workers get a bug up their ass about organizing and striking, there’s a reserve army of labor in the homeless and unemployed communities that can step in and scab.
