30 Examples Of People So Consumed By Hustle Culture They Lose Touch With Reality

That’s funny, I read it in that voice that’s a bit 1950s either Fallout 4 or Prey information terminals before whatever apocalyptic event happened.

I read it in a bored, monotone drone of someone who either hates life or has a gun to their head

I read this like a gameshow host.

I think just eat is a company

hahah same

Lol

I work in IT. I get emails about being a warehouse supervisor.

I would consider it statistical noise, with enough people taking a poll every response will be given at least once. I wouldn't even trust the data from a poll where the ridiculous answers actually get 0 responses.

All the more concerning that the company has written interoffice conversations that need revisiting due to misunderstandings between the two sides.

But what's the 5% of communication that's not written? Talking to himself? Voices in his head?

Just look here in BP, I use smileys and "/s" to make sure when I'm joking etc. But since he was by himself, then reading your own words might do it. But I sometimes can wonder what the heck I wrote some month ago,when I scribbled down something 🤔

Absolutely, not everyone wants to list their positions on what is essentially "social media for business". And like kissmychakram said, the majority of his staff may be contractors. Makes much more sense to hire short term contractors if the work is sporadic than paying half a dozen employees all the time, even when they're not working. Or worse, firing them when you no longer need them.

I cut them out of my life in 2008,best move I ever made.

This is a valid point. I believe I still get emails from them, despite my utter apathy to that website. I simply would not join it, moving forward.

Is it it like that law where you put out incorrect information intentionally and someone corrects you? Segal’s law?

He got caught in a lie

Exactly!

That is, but have you tried to take the square root of each side, and THEN compare? Complex numbers and stuff, another thing that this guy doesn't understand, could be introduced, making him even more of a typical dude with midlevel economic education who got to know he knows everything, everything relevant at least, because nothing else matters.

You didn't carry the 2

So the equation is correct

No kidding. USA is trash. I can say that because I'm a voting citizen who pays taxes. It's my country and I sometimes hate it. We could do so much better.

UK here. I get a little under 7 weeks leave, plus no guilt for sickness, etc ( so long as genuine illness). I'm not sure how US people function!

yessss....

I saw a guy a few days ago who said that [QUOTE] - 'Europeans have more vacation time because America pays for NATO and European countries don't have to spend so much on defense thus freeing up money to pay for all of their time off'. Honestly, the toxic culture around work in the US borders on mental illness. How about just treating your staff properly and paying them what they're worth? Too hard?

Don't laugh at us, this was not our idea and we hate it very much.

Yeah but our rate of heart attacks, strokes and citizen incarceration are the highest. Beat that Europe! Wait ohhhhh now I'm sad.

Two weeks off plus so many days when I decided I need a break. (Hard physical work so management understand we need sometimes day off)

Went to Oslo last December. First day cab driver asked how long I was there for and I told him a week. He asked why not longer & I said I had to get back to work. He said "you don't get 5 weeks vacation?" I laughed.

I'm in the US and I get 3 weeks. Not on par with a large segment of Earth's population and it's not exactly given. Vacation time is figured by the number of hours you work and is increased the longer you work for the company. Now, different industries and whether they work in a managerial position also comes into play. Upper executives and unions have their time worked into contracts so they generally have a lot better plan. The greedy corporate red tape was tied into a bow generations ago and now it's a knot that no corporation want untied. Don't count on politicians seriously taking this on because they don't want to anger their donors. Some will bring it up while campaigning, but it's all pandering for votes.

I work in the US in an at-will state (meaning I can be fired at any time for any reason) and I get 3.5 weeks of PTO a year and that is going to increase 2 more times once I've been with my company longer. And I'm not part of a union.

Except you hardly have jobs over there and the ones you have pay you nothing...

F**k Europe. They're being overrun by non-men and insane politics.

Absolutely. My coworkers keep saying "management said they 'probably don't even know half of what you're doing' again? Take two weeks off, then they definitely will." It's the inevitable result of companies trying to cut corners for too long by hiring people with no experience so they could pay them less, then refusing to do what's needed to keep experienced people. They're starting to improve in that regard, but this is a super niche industry and it never hit them too hard where it hurt, so it's very slow improvement.

I love our summer semester, it guarantees my husband and I time off together. :)
