They like to believe that they are working hard. It would be rare to find them doing more than 4 hours of productive stuff every day.

Whether it is Elon Musk, or the venture capitalists in the Silicon Valley, or the software folks, they have become way more than the old-fashioned workaholics. They seem to want to work and do nothing else--or, as we might say in the normal world: get a life! This fanaticism means that they don't want to "waste" time eating! Compared to these slaves, your uber-busy corporate executives are having a jolly good life!Sriram Khéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06724218458246880137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27946614.post-40788513674766358872015-05-28T17:51:46.777-07:002015-05-28T17:51:46.777-07:00My comment would be entirely predictable.

If there was a way of getting the nutrients in without even drinking Soylent, maybe through a pill, I am all for it !!<br /><br />But to save time to work ??? That's the silliest idea I have ever heard. All those corporate types who are claiming to work incredibly hard are lying through their teeth. If they kept a time sheet of when they actually performed useful work or when they goofed around, attended useless meetings, stupid conference call, making inane power point charts, etc etc they wouldn't even be able to fill 5 hours in a day. The myth of the uber busy executive is one of the most false of myths - they are just uselessly inefficient and have nothing else in life :)Rameshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11782192840421019943noreply@blogger.com
