When you work for a snake expect to be bitten.
It is my nature said the scorpion
I usually check my emails while on my autopilot commute to work
Also, with a 90-minute commute each way, in 2023, he apparently started sleeping in his car, showering at the factory and microwaving his dinners on days that he was working.
This guy sounds like a fucking idiot.
He sounds like a true believer.
Which is the same thing, really.
Probably thinks he’s a temporarily embarrassed billionaire
Darwin Award runner-up.
I don’t think that’s what darvin awards are for .
Reading mail while using autopilot?
When self-driving cars finally become a reality (working reliably on any condition without constant supervision), I suspect many people would skip buying house and buy these cars instead because it’ll be so much cheaper. After work, you hop into your car and take a nap, then wake up in a diner’s parking lot. Go back to the car again after eating to sleep, and wake up in the morning already in your office’s parking lot. Basically homeless but never need to worry about cop because the car constantly moves while you’re sleeping, making circuit around the city until it finally take you back to your office’s parking lot.
We have a winner!
Anyone not seeing the writing on the wall, or in some cases in large print on front pages of papers, in relation to this dude deserves to be fired.
Mmm yeah, that sweet sweet grind culture
Surely you’ll be a billionaire too some day, if you only play doormat to the owner class hard enough.
It’s probably because he’s a kiss ass and smells like sauerkraut from not baving
What? The guy who fired people who slept in their offices at Twitter fired more people who were sacrificing their personal lives for one of his companies?
Ya don’t say.
I hear masochistic genocidal overlord is much nicer once you get to know him. You just have to look past all the masochism and genocide, to see the fluffy teddy bear inside.
I hear masochistic genocidal overlord
I think you mean sadistic.
Adding this to my list of reasons why I don’t give “110%”
#1 - literally impossible
#2 - not being paid 110%
#3 - the company doesn’t actually reward going above and beyond, and sometimes they punish you
I always give 100% at work:
- Monday: 10%
- Tuesday: 20%
- Wednesday: 30%
- Thursday: 20%
- Friday: 20%

Have to make up 100 somehow. All numbers are just approximations, of course.

But was the car on autopilot?

Ha! Too bad Lemmy doesn’t do karma. You cracked a pretty good upvote farming technique by asking a question that should have slammed for not even bothering to rtfa or summary or other cooments even, and then self responding with what is a redundant statement from the article for everyone else.
Lemmy user SLAMMED for making an obviously sarcastic quip!
Oh no!, I need therapy!
That’s a convoluted way of describing what I did, guess… I only read the article after my first comment, yes.
How many times has some fool slept on the job for that asshat only to be given the old heave ho.
Why bother living.
I guess maybe if the extreme overwork overtime is a means to an end by getting money, retire early, get experience to find a more reasonable job… I guess maybe some can justify it. Maybe. There’s probably some who feel forced due to desperate circumstances.
Idk. I hate this overworked overtime culture.
Yeah I just was forced to quit after putting in 10 hours a day for 5+ years at a company. It caused health problems and is definitely not worth it. Put the extra time into YOUR OWN projects instead of someone else’s.
Agreed. And remember that a good personal project does not necessarily have to be for profit.
