If you think you’re winning because you’re a corporate slave in capitalism then actually you’re losing at life.
I am not committed to winning
If anything, Linkedin itself is a redflag just from their psychopathic micromanagers lost in their own world thinking everyone owes them something.
This context does not change anything. Not prioritizing health shows a critical misunderstanding of what wealth is, and how to reap its benefits. You are not likely to be a good business person if you do not understand fundamentals.
That being said, if you’re willing to cheat/lie/steal you can ignore a lot of the fundamentals - which is the route most of these “cofounders” took
I think it’s fair enough to put in some really intense years with the promise of a nice payoff and ability to retire early, as opposed to spreading that effort and payout over decades with work / life balance. The problem is when that same intense effort is asked of anyone who will not be getting such a payout at the end. Even workers with equity in a start-up can get the shaft due to the fine print where the VCs take the lions share of the exit money and the workers end up with a paltry sum to that won’t even cover their medical bills later on after the stress takes its toll on their bodies.
He’s right. I’m committed to getting paid and doing what I want.
Right? “Winning” what exactly? Reid Hoffman’s trying to be the best at being the most miserable and unfulfilled. The most regrets on his death bed.
Fuck this guy and anyone who thinks like him
Well I say seeking to remove my work-life balance means he’s not committing to not wanting to taste lead at high velocity using the base of his skull as a mouth.
Fuck this guy. I say we guillotine him as an example to the others.
Not everyone hates their family, Reid.
Reid Hoffman can wake up at 4:30am and begin the important work of eating my entire arsehole.
I wouldn’t give him the privilege of the entirety. He can just lap at the crusty bits.
Linkedin is a meat market for capitalist labor. It is very anti- worker, pro capitalist douchebaggery. Fuck Linkedin.
These narcissist CEOs cannot grasp the idea that “life” is employees working for themselves and pursuing their own interests instead of working for others.
What kind of commitment does Reid Hoffman have towards seeing his employees win?
What kind of profit sharing do LinkedIn employees enjoy? What’s the salary / compensation disperancy look like between the average employee and the C-Suite executives? What’s the medical insurance and parental leave packages look like? What about education reimbursement?
Seriously, who is “winning” in Reid Hoffman’s ideal scenario?
this belongs in linkedin lunatics
That gave me the greatest laught yesterday.
It was so expected but still funny
Dude wants to win at work. I win at life.
He doesn’t understand the difference.
