Narayama Murthy sounds like an enormous piece of shit.

The mistake was narayama murthy’s mom didn’t swallow the night he was conceived.

Infosys is a mistake. It’s a poor choice for anyone.

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.

Some people would want others’ lives to be embedded into one hierarchy, and that only.

So that everything of importance were decided by people on top of those hierarchies.

Ex-USSR countries show full well why this shouldn’t be allowed. It, of course, was done there accompanied by a different ideology, but.

Absolutely nailed it.

Start billing your job for providing support services to their employees

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.

Science: knowledge workers stop being consistently productive past 40 hours per week, and probably less than that

Bruh! Your golf business meetings, lunches, drinks, clubs, gamblin, parties, vacations, 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 after sitting in traffic for at least an hour each way and no one driving you all while doing this without extra help is a mistake.

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

Typical CEO ragebaiting to make themselves seem relevant.

If Musk has taught me anything in the last several months, it’s that the job of CEO is the easiest jib in the world. He’s CEO of like 5 different companies, and now he has a made-up but high level, government job. Must be fuckin nice-

That’s too much credit. I’d say just an old man given more attention than he deserves.

WOW. Sleep and rest are mistakes. TIL
