It's desperation. Americans are lacking the desperation necessary to endure unnatural commutes and spaces. What these 'people' want are more desperate workers.
- Arrath 4y agoManagement will find my work ethic is perfectly suitable to the work at hand, my ethic just scales in response to my compensation.
- P_I_Staker 4y agoIdk, I'm payed pretty well, but am still lazy as fuck. I see comments like this on hackernews, but I bet you're still all making 6 figures, or $150+ in SV.
- Arrath 4y agoI'm an outlier, a laborer turned foreman turned field engineer in construction who likes nerdy shit so as I've transitioned to more and more office stuff I found hacker news. :V ...I do make 6 figures, but I still wear steel toes to work?
- P_I_Staker 4y agoHow much money would it take for you to actually work? $200k, $150 million thousand. At a certain points it just becomes sloth. Do you really want to be a sloth? Want to eat ants all day? I actually quite like lizards. The crunchy kind.
- Arrath 4y agoOh I do work, quite a bit. All the same I wouldn't mind more money, then I might even consider a house!
- P_I_Staker 4y agoI would never consider working, or a house for that manor... not even if bribed with one of your fancy steel shoes.

- 000ooo000 4y agoExactly. Also hard to take advice on work ethic from ultra wealthy individuals born at a time in history unmatched for the ROI of decent work ethic.
