Just an example: if you hold an L visa, your only other option is packing your stuff and going back to your home country.



It's not just L visa(I was on L a few years back, and returned back).

Let's be honest this is far from what people call slavery. They are being paid multiples of six digit salaries, RSUs and work in one of the most happening tech ecosystems of the world.

I would love to be a part of something like this. Heck most of us would love to be a part of something like.

I kind of envy those guys working on these projects. I hope I was the one there.


Agreed. I've missed multiple deaths in the family, important events with friends and sacrificed a large chunk of my life to be in one of the most happening tech ecosystems in the world. Even when I was eventually fired due to burn out, I walked away thinking to myself: "I still envy the people in that office, working hard for that CEO".


Envy for others working to burnout for some other person? How sad.

A CEO is just a title, often for someone who’s can’t get anything done independently.

Musk is an example. He builds nothing, actual engineers build, actual salespeople sell.


This reminds me Stockholm Syndrome.


> Heck most of us would love to be a part of something like.

Nope. At 1 AM? Nope.

Nobody would be in office at 1 AM by choice, they had to for the paycheck.


Hahaha you've never met a real man, neat.
