Seeya! How is it SF's fault that you can't take a break?

Instead of changing things, you whine then leave. Yeah! That'll change the "SF work culture"!

Personally, I just went outside for the first time in two or three weeks. There are just more interesting things inside than out. I everything I need delivered or transmitted over the internet, including friends.




And clearly your life will never change and you are certain to always feel like this.

As a post script: it's also worth noting that this was merely a bulletin that Steve was departing, not a manifesto about work-life balance (which you'll note is not the reason he's citing for leaving SF).


sick sad life.
