1. If they say 60 up front, it’s likely much more than that.

2. I don’t do good work when I’m tired.

3. I have some health issues that make managing 40 hours difficult sometimes, so I’m not “posturing.”

Also, I’m pretty sure stock options didn’t vest until like four years or something. IIRC, Musk’s companies were well known for chewing up young engineers and spitting them out. Their modus operandi seemed to be taking advantage of young idealistic graduates who would work themselves to death for some “cause” (and not enough compensation).

All of that is fair. Sorry to hear about your health issues - that's totally understandable.

Just wanted to push back a little against your initial snark :)
