It's much easier talk about integrating life and work and shun compartmentalization of work when you see much more direct returns from the output of your work/not work, rather than having a fixed salary.
He's also vicious about crushing unions and is known for giving employees so little breaks they have to piss in bottles.
Fuck Bezos. The US has a real problem with wealth worship. People lap up every drop that comes out of this asshole just because he's a million times richer than everyone else. So they think he's a million times smarter.
Jeff Bezos is a rich asshole and treats his employees like toilet paper. It's laughable that anyone would take life advice from this clown
Never take advice from outliers.

Bezos holds fair amount of respect for his accomplishments, but statements like these make him sound more like Mr. Burns than anyone. Just trying to extract maximum output out of his labourers. I for one am fairly surprised by the shamelessness demonstrated by some of these excess haves.

Right?
The more Bezos opens his mouth, the more he sounds like he wants to be neo robber baron.
We have billionaires competing over who will go to space first, because they simply have nothing better to do with their money.
It's disgusting really. Yet somehow articles about what these assholes eat for breakfast still get to the front page
Debilitating to a few men's fortunes perhaps, but richly rewarding to the thousands of people with a broader outlook to life.
