Hey I’ve actually done that before kept snoozing my alarm for a few more minutes, got written up a few times, got a final warning and one day I was like “eh I can probably find a new job easily” and rolled over and had one of the best sleeps of my life and was in a new job by Monday of the next week.
Alternative text: Me, sacrificing my health by sleeping too little so that I can be paid the absolute minimum that my corporate overlords can get away with, while extracting the most value possible from my labor.
Time to get eatin’ 🍽️
If oversleeping ends your career, its not your career, it’s wage slavery.
If you oversleep by hours or days and your boss says, I was worried. Are you all right?
And you reply, yeah, I overdid it last night. I’m just exhausted.
And he says, that’s a relief. Can we still make the deadline?
And you say Barring further unforseen problems. Yeah. I have the prelims already.
And he says, You’re the heart of the team, Larry. Email me the current version after you’ve had some coffee.
That is your career.
