What the Wikipedia article leaves out is that employes that are in this state will have a sort of 'fight or flight' response and will usually work their tails off.
- vogonj 15y agoI'm an employee of Microsoft in the Valley. when I leave work at 6:15, there are maybe 15 people left at their desks in the section of the floor I work on (which has about 150 desks in it.) I know multiple people who show up around 11 and leave by 6. Microsoft is hardly the worst offender in this metropolitan area, much less the industry.
