“richest men in the world attempt to gaslight the working class. again.”
He's right, though. "Work/life balance" is a debilitating phrase, because it reminds workers that they can't have a life.
I am deeply interested in the thoughts of billionaires who benefit from the incomparably greater amount of work other people perform to provide them with obscene amounts of wealth so they can find a comfortable balance between exploiting workers and flying in dick rockets for fun.
Not to mention not giving their workers the time off to fly in a dick rocket for fun, never mind giving them the pay to afford it.
I hate it too. It should be life/work balance. Life comes first. Work to live, not live to work
So, to explain the rule: if you have three words, then the vowel order has to be I, A, O. In the case of two words, the first is almost always an I and the second is either an A or O. For example, Mish-mash, chit-chat, dilly-dally, tip-top, hip-hop, flip-flop, tic tac toe, sing-song, ding-dong, King-Kong, ping pong.
According to the secret rules of English it should be that way round.
Capitalism can change anything it wants, including some English language rules.
These guys need to think more about "guillotine/shut the fuck up" balance
Wealth hoarders who don’t even give their workers enough time to piss in a bottle hate work-life balance. They can learn about some head-body balance when the guillotines get brought out.
I understand why: A balance implies a equal amount, while a harmony carries no such depth.
I actually like the wording "work-life harmony" but I guess I try to implement it the opposite way Nadella means it. Or I guess my version would be more "Life-Work harmony". Or "broadening my horizons and creating serendipitous moments by disconnecting from work" and "ensure I'm fully productive when on the clock" if you want to make it overgrown-man-baby-oligarch friendly and present it as a win-win.
I think he meant that work should not be compensated. Just tune your life to maximize both (?) is his message. Of course, the reality doesn't allow that and we need a trade-off. They live in a cave or something.
Work life balance, and circle of work is basically the same thing if you actually really read what they’re saying. Jeff Bezos is just a workaholic and a jerk.
I'm convinced workaholics hate their actual day-to-day lives and the people in them. Bezos definitely wasn't overly fond of MacKenzie, he dumped her ass with a swiftness once he found some arm-candy.
Everyone who lives to work is an insufferable piece of shit and so they like being at a workplace where people are forced to suffer their company, unlike real life, where people can walk the fuck away from their insufferable attitudes.
Interestingly enough, I hate some business leaders like Jeff Bezos.
Oh they hate the phrase "work-life balance"?
Let me just work it into my daily vocab.
Why does everyone hate this article just because it doesn't have any kind of footnote "AND OF COURSE THEY ARE WRONG AND OUT OF TOUCH" explicitly
Also why is Arianna Huffington on this list with her infinitely more reasonable take on it with no comment
I don't know in what illusion they are, but we do work to make money. It's in the contract. I never signed to make a better company. Hell, companies operate to make money. Who are they to tell us otherwise? Just give us the money we deserve and f**** off.
Bezos also called the concept of work-life balance "debilitating" because it hints that there's a trade-off.
What, there's no trade-off!? Were these people that stupid? I never guessed even.
