“I’m growing my YouTube channel”

“My fitness routine for Instagram is “like” a full time job”

“My side-hustle brings in 8k a month”

Totally common, and not said done by people with in office jobs.

I let a guy go at the start of covid for leaving his office workstation on while he mined ETH. He got a full remote job, “worked” 12-20 hours a week and went really hard on buying GPUs for his home mining rigs.

The thing is, this wasn’t uncommon. I let another guy go for not making it to 40 hours ever. Insisting that he was just as productive at 30-32 hours a week. Which doesn’t even remotely make sense.

I love that some people have WFH, but I hate the liars that paint the argument in a completely faultless way.
