What’s sad is not his dedication and loyalty to his workplace, but that he needed to go public with being fired and tell how many hours he poured into it. I’m sure he really made an effort during his long career at Microsoft. And I’m unsure why he was let go. But the repeated theme of “60 hour weeks” and “20 hour weekends” seems like trying to win an argument that he was, in fact, valuable. I don’t know what it’s like to be fired, much less at the age of 59. But it’s nice to hear of the silver lining. I’d want to feel the way he does, and blog less about it.
