I’m a strong believer that those cold spectrum fluorescents are stressful as hell and they’re a major reason people hate their office job, but they don’t know that part.
At my previous job they had a “dealing with overworking” webinar within the first few days I joined. During the webinar it came out that like 75% of the people in my department worked unpaid overtime every week… I only lasted a year there, not for that reason specifically but it was definitely an interesting first impression…
