Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

“I was not very happy with that. I think in this country, we have to work very hard because there is no substitute for hard work even if you're the most intelligent guy,”
Dude... If you work hard despite the fact that you claim to be intelligent... You are not intelligent.
Work smart, not hard. The smart thing is to take breaks so that you can focus on what you are doing. Not working till you drop.
Guarantee he's one of those rich pricks who count flying on a plane as "work". But he will work the dogshit out of his employees.

You also have a lot of founders who get to that position are workaholics who love focusing on their building empire. For them, it is hard to imagine how people wouldn't want to dedicate everything to building an empire like they do.
Those are my favorites - "Why doesn't everybody in my company want to work 80 hour weeks and never take vacation, like I do?" Geez, maybe it's because they don't own the fucking company and there is absolutely no benefit to them to work themselves to death? They're not the ones making more money just because they're increasing company profits.
