Imagine only getting 4 hours of sleep a day, working at Twitter, and genuinely think you're contributing in a good way to the world LMAOOOOOOOO Edit: God it's so funny seeing everyone getting so mad at me for pointing out that there is absolutely no reason to have the top 0.001% hardest working programmers at Twitter. It's even funnier seeing people call me lazy or unemployed when Im a blue collar carpenter.
Imagine they just like the job because they get paid well and it’s not hard what if they don’t care abt contributing to the world 😂 who is u bro superman 😂what u contribute 😂
They do actually and they contribute more than you ever will to society. Edit* The People replying back to me are former Twitter employee's burner accounts.
I worked so hard, slept only 4 hours a night, turned "employee abuse" into ".00001% hard worker", and died early so a billionaire could become a trillionaire.
Poor, poor victim boohoo. You signed up for a job. Knowing everything up front. It’s all a choice. There is no such thing as „employee abuse“ when you voluntarily sign a contract and can leave at any time. Thats just Nonsense. You chose to work there. You chose to accept your salary as adequate payment. You chose to become and also to stay an employee instead of building your own company. A job is literally you choosing to sell your problem solving skills to a company and them saying „we would be willing to pay you X + benefits to solve this problem on a continual basis for us. X is based on the amount of people with similar skillsets and what they’re willing to work for.“ thats how that works. If you think you have been „exploited“ or you think anyone else is being exploited in capitalism, first off you do not know what capitalism is and much less how it works, and secondly you are operating on false information. You have been lied to and never fact checked your ideas. Thats what believing that means.

Chris is being hyperbolic. I'm sure most of you know this. He's saying that Elon wants hard workers at Twitter, workers that WANT to work hard for something that is bigger than them. Not people who want to just come in, do minimum and pick up a cheque. Starting your own business is NOT for the kind of people he's talking about, nor do you need 100 hours per week to start your own business. I'm astounded at how much emotion and strawman this simple line from Chris has provided. Lol
You've obviously never grown a business. Even growing a small business is grueling. Let alone growing it to even a small/mid size business. You're better off working at Twitter under Elon.
Have you worked for Elon? No, so you have zero idea of what you are talking about. I am sorry you want to lay around your house and play video games but America became great because of a great work ethic not because of lazy people.
@@darkgardener9577the funniest part is that's not how it works in real life. Especially with a company the size of Twitter. I've been an employer and employee. Not once during my time when I was employing people did I ever find someone willing to work so hard that they're dedicating 12+ hours a day because they simply don't have anything involved in it. Elon came into Twitter with great ideas on paper but forced it too quickly without really thinking of the human component. He did fire many staff members then realized that there's no one to replace them with. Then ended up rehiring much of the staff.

Killing yourself for a company that will replace you at the drop of a hat is the most asinine and nonsensical approach to working. As an employee, do your job and try to be as efficient as possible, but get adequate rest and don’t burn yourself out.

I pro 16 hours a day as a chef at 2 restaurants and could be replaced at the drop of a hat but keep doing it while working on my own personal projects in a portion of my valuable spare time. Is it fair? Beats being on the streets not knowing how to feed myself.

You've gotta have a huge dose of luck to go from the bottom to the top, be it being born into a rich family, winning the lottery, or actually being lucky enough to be in a position where the hard work genuinely pays off in the end.

I had a boss who fooled himself into believing the capitalist idea of sacrificing his and others personal time for the company's development. When shit hit the fan, He was the first one the company let go off. Reason for that was he was the highest paid for his role and top management labelled him a "maid servant". He was jobless, unmarried and left depended on his savings because he never took the time to develop passive income streams. I knew he was wrong from the very beginning we were both hard workers and after he was let go, I was asked to step in. They wanted me to do his job for half the pay.

Or you can spend 10 hours a day, in a job where you get zero recognition for the work you did. And nobody will know you exist, and you get 50k a year... Only a complete imbecile chooses option A. Even if you actively WANT to work 16 hours a day (you're an idiot... But that would be your choice. Note those forced to work that long to survive aren't idiots, they're just abused by the shitty living situation the government has forced them into. Everyone deserves a living wage), you deserve to be paid and treated better. Get a second job, or start working on your own projects, or something. If you live your entire life solely to make someone else richer, you've failed yourself.
That’s so true. Twitter might be an exception bc of the tech culture and pay the last couple years (inflated salaries and laid back work), but the average job making 50k and wanting you to work to death is absurd
It’s also about if you’re averaging 4hrs of sleep at night you’re functionally impaired and could fall sleep at the wheel and kill yourself on your commute home from work.
I remember reading some messages where Twitter employees were bragging about pulling down $175k, and literally doing 2 hours of work a week. Maybe the messages were fake,but if not, I'd never be that stupid to send a message bragging about that.
Bullshit. People are idiots. If you work them hard, they complain. Then when you make their lives easier...much less work...lots of luxuries at work ..people take advantage of it. And you know that. You've seen it happen at work. People will ruin it every time.
I beg to differ. I'd say this is shit you tell yourself to excuse your laziness. Personally I'm not one of these people but I know a few and would you believe they are all at the top of their companies earning a great many pounds. They sacrifice family, friends, hobbies but they have built/run massive companies. These are the people that create your job. Be grateful.
You're telling me you would rather keep your average salary where everyone was paid the same no matter how hard they worked? Elon gives the people who are willing to work their asses off a substantial raise and they are now recognized for their work ethic. If you want to be average that's fine. But there are a small number of men who are willing to out work you every day in order to not be paid an average salary.

The fact that you think working at an office is equivalent to working on a plantation is amazing to me. My parents came to this country with 0 in their pockets. I’m first generation born and I love the fact that I have the opportunity to continuously work and succeed. I just bought my third house this year at 30 years old. To be honest the greatest part is how lazy and stupid younger American people are. They make continuous excuses on how they are the victims and can’t succeed. It makes it so much easier for me to succeed and less competition I love it lol
Understand that these people don’t want to leave the plantation. Not everyone wants out, like he said, this is the dream for some people. This is the pinnacle of software engineering and data management when it comes to hrs work and progress. The reason Tesla was built so fast was because Elon pushed his workers far past what they thought they were capable of, you can hear that in interviews.

As a software engineer I feel the need to explain that sitting in an office for 16 hours does not mean you're doing 16 hours of good work - most of the really difficult problems are solved when you're "off" in fact sitting staring at the screen can prevent that from happening. Pressurized, relentless environments like that lead to disengaged developers taking bad shortcuts. The most productive software companies I've ever worked in judged solely on quality of output. A message like this from leadership just announces that it's a shit place to work that doesn't understand what you do.
I remember glancing at Valve’s employee handbook and it literally said that the programmers are free to work whenever they want. The company gave them freedom and it led to some of the best games of all time.
The reality was that they had a thousand employed, and the website had 0 changes, his announcement was If you are going to get payed then work. If you don't have the slightest pressure to do anything then you won't. He just said that they had to produce results, that isn't creating a "shit place to work".

If you want a good wage and can’t provide for yourself then you have to make sacrifices until you figure out how to obtain a similar mode of survival that equates or surpasses your current situational sacrifice. No one forces them to work for twitter and unemployment sucks Whoever has a better option is free to pursue alternatives
@@darylingoteborg3178 WHy do you think so many people left it is because they do have options. SOftware engineers are coveted they have plenty of options they do not have to stick with a compnay if they dont want to.
There is no exploitation taking place. They all signed contracts voluntarily and chose to stay there voluntarily. If you think any part about that is exploitation you need to check your definitions my man.
@@leoxd7029 L take, no one wants to change job. To have your job change while you're there, becoming shite, is shite, and eventually yes, people will leave, not before they've had an absolutely dogshit time. And then half the people in these comments will stay, being the good workers they are. Happy to be in this hypothetical toxic environment because "hard worker is good" 👍 If anything its the myth of working yourself to death, so to speak, being a good thing, and the many people here that support that, its those people that get exploited off the back of that trope. While "normal people" leave and get better jobs
This is so inspirational because if you look deeply into what's he saying it reminds me of quote . "if you work really really hard , one day you will be able to make somebody else really rich . "
More accurately they want to work for a big company and a big name like Elon, thinking it will open doors to things other than a stress-related breakdown.
Hard work, fulfilling work, and meaningful work are all separate things. That being said, sleeping 4 hours a day to work at Twitter requires a hefty amount of copium.
thats nuts and unhealthy. it has been proven even 6 hours sleep (an all too common number) is unhealthy. there are statistics proving a higher percentage of injuries/ accidents/ health problems etc with atheletes that have less sleep. also. its twitter. why on earth would you destroy yourself for that?
If somebody really loves his job that doesn't mean they need to exploited. There is still a option to pay them fairly and provide them with the human needs.
I mean to be fair a lot of the employees were treating Twitter like a college campus. They literally had game rooms and stuff for when you’re too stressed 😂
People who act like it’s an accomplishment to only sleep 4 hours might as well start saying they hold in shits and pisses for days and only eat 200 calories a day it’s absolutely retarded
Balance in every aspect is necessary Take care of your body and mind. Don't overeat don't underest Don't oversleep Or undersleep Don't overexhaust urself or be lazy Just keep pushing urself little by little
Who the fuck wants to do that? These “alpha grind just work bro” videos are an insane consequence of the internet, which has been a disaster for humanity
By law you are not allowed to work more than 16 hours without a 24 hour rest period if you are an employee. He (the man in the video) is talking about the people with the insatiable drive to keep working to claw success out of the void of infinite possibilities who end up leaving companies after 4 years to start their own.
You’ve probably never been surrounded by the extraordinary devs in your life. You are describing a programmer who is failing and is trying to fake it until they make it.
Read through all of these comments and it blew me away how they think that statement is delusional. There is a small contingent of men out there, who want to be the best, surrounded by the best, pushed beyond the limits. To have a beacon placed, somewhere you know you could find that, is a beautiful thing. Your character is forged in the fires of adversity
