At my 9-5, our time keeping software doesn't even let you put in anything smaller than a quarter hour.

2 strollers per month?!

Was it an active warzone?

Did… did the kid survive?

Just take the joke my god

probably less than 1hr each, likely the ones he was going to "reject" if he is the HR manager, regardless of the qualifications of the candidate.

Life with her certainly was lmao

That number might even have been higher, but like half of them were bought used luckily.

I have great clients tbf, I acquired them through my past 9-5s so I knew what I was getting into beforehand

Sure. I just wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. There is a slim chance that they have a very healthy relationship at home. The mother may also be a LinkedIn lunatic and they take turns with the children.

It's bullshit from start to finish. Nobody really does hours like this. There'll always be unexpected stuff, it doesn't matter what the job is. You could be President (with an actual serious schedule) and there would still be odd minutes here and there.

It

lol :)

I have seen a few examples of people using linkedin to humble brag about their work ethic or whatever and all it ever does is tell me that they aren't actually happy with the thing they do.

I find it a lot more interesting to read or hear stories about projects people have been working on and them telling a little bit about the process. The excitement of them sharing what they have worked on is ten times more interesting than some randy bragging about how much they worked in one day.

Like omg congratulations. I work along hours too. I don't think it's anything to be proud of. Quite the contrary.

I can't remember what the conversion is so I'll just assume it's 90 celsius and the son cooked to a nice crisp outside, juicy tender inside

What’s the point of having children if you are never home to spend time with them?

Unfortunately no official diagnosis since she claims nothing is wrong with her and everyone else is out to get her instead. But I suspect narcissistic personality disorder and potentially ADHD (she's extremely impulsive and makes/changes long term plans on a whim).

We also had about 20 or 30 car seats all together (including both the infant and toddler variants) and we split up shortly after the kid's first birthday. The winter she was pregnant, she complained about winter jackets being too small or too cold every few weeks, think I bought her a total of 10-15 jackets over one winter. Couldn't get one two sizes up either. Had to be exact fit because "I'll stop growing now anyway". She did not. Went from 70 KG to peak 140 just before birth, claiming she ate nothing.

“When you coming home dad?…”

I do the morning routine with the twins each morning and it takes me at least one hour, sometimes one and a half. And our daycare is like 5 minutes away by bike.

My guess is that this dudes wife gets the son ready and this guy drives him over. Which is by the way the only time during this day he sees his kid.

Absolutely, and hopefully living in her own place. This guy works the whole day. He only has half an hour to get rid of his kid and half an hour for his dog's needs.

Legacy my boy. Trust funds don't spend themselves

Some say he is still out there today

• I’m proud of having no life to be a company stooge, and I’ll expect everyone else to surrender their soul to the grind.

We don’t know when he woke up

People like that are in a constant battle to prove how exceptional they are while being completely unexceptional. They have no real success stories so they have to create some by painting this image in their heads that they are naturally superior to everyone else. Every one of them have Dunning-Kreuger syndrome.

You're probably right, but that is so sad, omg xD

All I can say is that working long hours is soul crushing. I went through an extreme case of that a few years ago, out of necessity.

Worked so much I have like three months from that year that are almost totally blank in my memory. No clue what happened during that time.

According to my boyfriend, at my worst, I worked between 90 and 120 hours a week.

All I know is that I didn't have a social life and didn't have hobbies or any free time. Didn't even have time to breath and have a check in with myself so I didn't know that I was on the brink of losing it before I almost did.

Still paying the mental and physical price for that sacrifice two years later and it wasn't fucking worth it, man. Like at all.

I've had to relearn what it means to have freetime and hobbies. It's going okay in that department! Have gotten my plant hobby back on track and am currently making fugly fridge magnets with stupid faces and googly eyes. Figured I needed something funny to look at when I'm not around a mirror.

We also went to the beach today and collected sea glass, which is basically like meditation, if you ask me!

No, they died.

90°F, that's outside. Inside a car, it got to over 120°F (probably). The kid died.

Well shit, I was hoping for a nice denouement

The lead forklift trainer tried to perform CPR, but the child was too far gone. I think she had to take a few days off.

Yea, I would have had to take those days off too. That's gotta be traumatizing

I wish Gym leaders were real. And did all that campy condescending "hahaha" while they're posing in the wind and shit stuff
