As someone who roughly fits that mold: I do love it, but I’d never describe it as a holiday :)

- lmm 3y agoThe phrase means that something isn't a holiday. Despite linking to an explanation of it, the grandparent does not seem to be using it correctly.
- fragmede 3y agoTo take a break from a FANG or other corporate job, and do a low-key start-up thing with the gang, and greenfield some code instead of bug fixing maintenance work, while working remote from a beach in Hawaii or somewhere sounds like a holiday to me!
- quickthrower2 3y agoExactly. Working from a beach isn't for me (too much sunlight and sand, and "i could be surfing :-(") but yes the rest of it. Especially the deep work of not working in a typical business.
