Graham Sutherland / Polynomial"you can't really do just a nine to five in this industry" lmao okay sure buddy, feel free to burn yourself out for someone else's dime, I'll be over here taking photos of moths
I almost certainly parroted this line in my 20s but that's because I was a fucking idiot in my 20s
Theolodian@gsuberland I even found a 9 to 5 toxic when I was in my 20s. But then I’ve always been contrarian. 😉
Mister Dave@gsuberland you're in good company in that regard (also, unrelatedly, in my company)
stfn@gsuberland lol, which industry do they mention?
@stfn but honestly you can insert almost any industry in here, people will say the same shit.
@gsuberland yeah, I've seen recently some generic IT CEO saying that "if you want to have work-life balance, it means you do not want to work"
an actual bus@stfn @gsuberland I mean that's correct, I *do not* want to work. For others at least.

Besides, that industry must really suck if they don't need or want productive employees.

Chris Ferdinandi@gsuberland when I was an HR intern in a previous life, a recruiter on my team talked shit about some dude at a job fair after he walked away from our booth because he said he was looking for a job that was lower stress.
Such a predatory industry!
