    I guess that would make sense to someone with narcissistic or psychopathic personality organization. “All benefits must accrue to me.”

    The worst people on Earth are the ones who are constantly obsessing about “winning” every situation, so that makes perfect sense to me.

    I worked at LNKD through a good part of its rampup. Jeff Weiner made Linkedin what it was. Reid Hoffman was mostly useless and came along for the ride. His “masters of scale” podcast series was a bit of a joke too, he never had anything to do with anything technical or at scale. He is just stealing credit from his betters.

      I’m worried that LinkedIn has gotten worse. If it’s not an update about a new job or a work anniversary, it’s some influencer-type grind-cult post or a “how to do X with specifically our product” kind of advertiser seminar clip (and I don’t need more ansible in my life, thanks).

      I’m not sure it wasn’t ever much better, but I remember otherwise.

    Working hard and long hours at the detriment of other things can be a good idea. If you have equity, a stake in the thing you’re doing. You could print money. But if you’re an employee, there’s no such incentive.

    I’m only committed to winning in that way if winning means that I am getting a cut of the company profits.

    I’m at my salary will reflect the profitability and growth of the company.

    Otherwise I’m just another wage slave that you’re trying to abuse, and take away my work is rights

    Well. I don’t usually listen to the opinions of fat fucks. Because they can’t even manage their own lives. As a technically obese man myself. I power lift and have never had a healthy bmi technically. We should be ignored because we suck at our own health.

    Weird. I feel like I’m winning when I’m on a long vacation doing something adventurous and I feel like I’m fucking losing when I’m staring at a computer screen in an office.

      For real I love it when I’m not at work having fun and living life even if it’s just boring and I’m at home just working on some house projects and riding my bike
