      Cell phones and wall street yuppies became a thing at relatively the same time, yuppy culture really threw work life balance out the window and changed US working culture. There was no European equivalent to the wall street yuppy.

        Oh yeah we’ve got them. They’re called “young managers”.

        I went on a business trip a couple weeks ago with 3 of them. Those mfers were working on the planes and in the airports, went straight to the remote office when we landed, worked until 7pm, and started their next day at 7:30am. The grind is real.

        I’m a senior software developer. If I can’t fit everything I need to do in a regular work day, I either suck at my job or the job is managed by idiots.

      Yeah, but I’m browsing Lemmy, not checking if I have received an email from work.
