Asian parents be like: “dEPreSSiON iS cAusEd bY LaZiNesS, juST WoRK hARdeR aND yOU wiLL bE hAPpy!”
Me: 🥲🔫
It’s not just Asia, my parents are from the 1950s, in an European country, and they had the same mentality. Money through hard work was the equivalent of a good life. Our holidays were never fun. No one knew what enjoying life is.
In reality you are just addicted to making money so what you are saying is “I do drugs and so should everyone”

I’m just gonna leave this here.
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.
At my job we’ve learned that anyone above director level simply will not read beyond the first sentence of a fucking email. So we have to write them these orc-like one liner emails and pray they understand whatever it is the fuck they need to understand. They have zero nuance or patience. They just want to grunt and point.

Just to add more context, this shithead’s daughter is the wife of the British PM.
It’s a big club
Wife of previous British PM, not the current one

I was just looking at a picture of Victoria Starmer thinking, “uhhh, what?”
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.
It’s like a recipe for becoming a fuckhead.
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
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.
Imagine being this turd’s kid
The look on his face really screams happiness and fulfillment, don’t it?
It’s the classic I-suffered-so-everyone-else-should-suffer-to-keep-it-fair mentality.
Ignoring the fact that we should work to reduce suffering for future generations.
