The office is empty at 6:30? Preposterous
(sh.itjust.works)
"Business angel" 🤮
That's why Asia, working the longest hours, is the world's most productive region, right?
Japanese office workers are one of the most inefficient workers despite the long hours they spend at the office
I'd imagine that they're unproductive because of the long hours that they spend in the office. It's been a source of mystery to me (European) how our offices in America manage to put in 60 hour weeks every week, often with a crazy commute before and after, and yet never seem to make fuck all progress on anything. Better to concentrate on how to be as productive as possible for time that you are there, than to fetishise the total amount of time?

Well I imagine efficiency is measured by the amount of work done divided by the number of hours worked... I know the salary-man culture in Japan is pretty grueling, so I imagine the hours are super high. And since they're so fucking tired (Japanese men sleeping at the office is a meme), the work suffers.
So they are not only working far more hours than average, but getting the same amount or possibly even less, work complete in that time because of energy levels/morale.
Simple math that you'd hope even a CEO could grasp.

It really gets me that "working hard" to increase capital is baked in as one of the strongest morals of our society.
The whole "work hard" being a moral dictum really depends on the country.
I've worked in Portugal, Britain and The Netherlands for about a decade each and whilst the Brits have the "work hard" not just in the sense of long hours but also the bloody slogan and moral commandment, and the Portuguese too have the long hours but "work hard" really doesn't add up to a moral commandment, the Dutch have neither and in fact it's considered a bad thing if people are still at the office after 6 PM (many even come in earlier to leave at 4.30 PM) to the point that a manager is considered a bad manager if their people are still there at that hour (because it means they didn't plan the project properly), quite the opposite of the other two countries were the "bumms on seats" after 6PM are seen as a good think.
Interestingly, of all 3, the Dutch are the most productive, by far - you do a lot more in term of actual results delivered in 8h/day in The Netherlands than you do in 10-12h/day in Portugal or Britain.

This guy probably still wonders why he was bullied in High School and College.
Love the boot I guess, whatever makes you happy
Business owners be like:
How dare these people not give me their labor for free. How greedy of them
And not detect a single drop of irony
It's a coworking space, which means he's not dunking on his employees, just other randos who have a life.

I recently got scolded for saying we shouldn't work nights and weekends for free at work. (Everyone is salary).
The boss was telling me it demoralizes my coworkers to say that. And it "doesn't hurt me if they decide to put in extra time".
The most naive theory of labor, or just lying?
"Putting in the hours" isn't working. It's flexing your masochism
Yeah it’s virtue signaling for free market simps

Thing is, no one likes to work in a co-working space. Accelerators have these Hip Spaces which are sometimes used (for Meetings and Workshops) but that is just a perk. Main focus is to get multiplication and contacts. Additionally you can join multiple accelerators (as a startup).
I have rarely seen someone working in such a space and IF it was for a hackathon or due to a "last week crunsh before release".
Home Office .... they key words are home office and core hours (which are a 4H overlap for communication between early birds and night owls)...
There, you have it. That guy has no idea about processes and employee management. This guy is a one man clown show.
i start working at 6:30 and work till 16:30 so i can see my children before they go to bed.
i'm just a burden for my company, right?

The US has influenced the rest of the world so much. It's quite sad. Hopefully Trump's election will force Europe to put up some figurative walls and stop the flood of bullshit from that country.
The right-wing rot is in Europe too.
The rot can be more easily excised with less foreign influence.
oh nooo people are not making money for their bosses so sad.
Hmm, do you know what I'm doing at 6:30? I'm hanging w/ my family, and then I'll sometimes WFH on my personal projects. If you're actually side-hustling or running your own business, long hours isn't the solution IMO, instead break up those hours w/ other important things, and fit the work around that.
Fuck this idiot.
Good work ethic is when you spend every waking moment working instead of spending time with your family, yourself, your pets, your friends, doing self care, cooking for yourself and/or family.
Sounds like a jolly old life that doesn't it? Sure would love to do that every day until I die.
This guy is a certified nutjob.

More like Max Burnout amirite???
Poor soul.
Working anti-cyclical in the shared office space is actually a good idea. Less distractions, better use of the heating.
If you want to hustle, you can totally do shift work hours.
Yeah that's about the face I was expecting him to be making. It's the "Please knock my lights out" face. The mental agony face.
Working long hours is sometimes justified: but unless you're the CEO you should be getting extra pay or time off in lieu. Anything else is wage theft.
