Guy probably works, effectively, for 4 hoours a day, and then puts 16 into Jira.
On another note, I work 10 a day give or take, and that’s because I can then take a few days off anyway. And I love my work and can afford it. Nobody pays me more than my hourly rate (if it is not a requested overtime in case of a night release [2x hourly] or being on emergency in case something breaks [0.5 hourly, but paid even if no emergency is raised, but have to be on call, so 8 hours of undisturbed sleep is like working 4 hours]). I do this on my own volition.
If you’re not willing to work yourself to death… We don’t want you

Would be nice if those companies actually didn’t find anyone, but alas they keep being rewarded.
I think this lots. Them “free market” types get real grumpy and start putting their fingers on the scales once it doesn’t go their way.

Without a
desperate and hungry(ahem) “career motivated and ready” workforce, it becomes difficult to “acquire talent.”
