That's not tone deaf or anything.
- Centigonal 6y agoI think it's the analysts writing these slides.
- psychometry 6y agoStockholm Syndrome then?
- smnrchrds 6y agoNo, just understanding the reality of the world we live in and what's possible and impossible in it. Labour advocates in the US are now fighting for $15 minimum wage, not $50, because they too understand that's the maximum they can possibly convince the congress to pass. Any more than that and people would laugh to their face.
- lquist 6y agoThat's a suggestion by the analysts. As someone who has worked 100 hour weeks in finance, there is a world of difference between 80 and 100. 80 allows you to care for your health in a way that 100 doesn't and is in that way just barely sustainable.
- Taylor_OD 6y agoLol. That is an incredible bullet point. Someone actually decided okay we need to draw a line in the sand where anything more is excessive. That line is at 80 hours. After that is too much. God I hate late stage capitalism.
