- vasco 10mo agoYou justified reckless driving because you have a desk job.
- darubedarob 10mo agoHe justified reckless driving by having a stressfull society that grinds you to paste during the day. And experiencing "danger" recalibrates that stress sensor stuck at 11. Thats why the project management crowd consistsof paragliders, riverrafters, pilots,rock-climbers and wingsuit flyers ir race car drivers. The danger is the one thing resetting body cortisol levels. Trying to educate that away is a foolish miss understanding of the human condition.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_hormone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_hormone One can only redirect the behaviour.
- vasco 10mo agoNo, you wrote that, he said sedentary intellectual work = desk job. Your argument is quite different and applies to everyone living today. Which doesn't mean its right but its very different than an argument that places desk jobs as more likely to do it than other people.
