Interesting to hear that law “firms are employing burnout advisers to keep their attorneys from getting overwhelmed.” Instead, why don’t these firms manage their clients’ unrealistic demands and set realistic deadlines for their teams? Working long hours and constant stress is not sustainable for any human being.

Elon Musk tells Twitter staff to work long hours or leave

Over here in the UK employers are meant to look after employees mental health,

So a note to Elon Musk this sort of thing from Musk will do the total opposite.

A toxic or bad work environment drives the best people away, and deters the best people from working for you.

A happy, relaxed, supported workforce is more productive than a stressed, tired, disillusioned work force.

Once on that slope there is little going back,

Speaking as a former web application developer…
Designing and coding is seductive work to mamy. You’re constantly presented with puzzles that need to be solved and you wind up spending every moment, even when away from the office, thinking of exquisitely effective solutions. You stay at your desk, playing with database queries long after most others have left the office and then you’ll go home and code on your laptop in bed until 3:00am. Because you’re in the ZONE, man…
