nothing quite stings like being woken up from sleeping underneath your desk at 8 am, not having left the office for a week and smelling like a rabid dog and being told that your level of commitment is disappointing.
- nodesocket 10y agoI'm sorry to hear this. Was this for a company? If you can say, love to know which one so I know to never apply or recommend them. I really can only do around 5-7 hours of solid productive programming a day. Otherwise my brain gets fried and quality, innovation, and speed diminish. I've done three bootstrapped startups (none ever raised VC capital), and while I usually work every day of the week, it is typically 4-10 hours a day.
