30 Examples Of People So Consumed By Hustle Culture They Lose Touch With Reality (New Pics)
Interview With Expert
The trend of the 24/7 grind isn't that new, but it's already deeply set into our collective psyche. Social media stars are influencing us with their daily routines, productivity apps, and books that are still topping the charts, and tech moguls are telling us how to be more productive and successful on TED Talks. That’s the reality of hustle culture.
All this mentality permeates the professional social media platform LinkedIn, as well. People tend to lose touch with reality and promote putting work before relationships, hobbies, and well-being. And that's where the community LinkedIn Lunatics comes in. They shed light on the absurdity of "virtue signaling" and "cringe-worthy titles" its users like to use so much.
To know more about the negative effects of hustle culture, Bored Panda reached out to Phoebe Gavin, a career and leadership coach. She helps ambitious professionals build successful, fulfilling careers without sacrificing work-life balance using a research-backed, multidisciplinary approach.
We asked Gavin more about what exactly hustle culture is, how it's related to privilege, and how people can balance their work and personal lives better. Read our entire conversation with her below!

First rule: the boss is always right. Second rule: if the boss happens to be wrong, refer to first rule. Third rule: the boss is free to change the rules whenever he wants. Fourth rule: even if he wrote the contrary of what he is actually telling you, refer to third rule. In the US, that seems to be the way it works.

What exactly is 'hustle culture'? We asked career and leadership coach Phoebe Gavin to define the term. "I define hustle culture as [a] grind at all costs, pouring everything that you can and everything that you have into growing professionally," she tells us. "Whether that's growing in a job or growing in your own company that you might be running."
Some of you might think: "What's wrong with wanting to focus on your career? Professional success is a very important aspect of a happy life." Well, too much of this hustle mentality can have negative effects on our well-being. Phoebe Gavin says that the negative effect of hustle culture is that it comes with a high cost.
"If you are pouring everything that you have into your professional life, whether that is your job or your company, then everything else has to give to make room for your professional efforts. It takes up all of your time, and [it] takes time and effort and energy away from your relationships," Gavin explains.
"It can sometimes have a negative impact on your mental or physical health. It can disconnect you from your community. It can disconnect you from causes that you may care about or be invested in. And sometimes, it can be very misaligned with your personal values."

I guess if no kids and hired house staff this could work. Not sure why anyone would want to make work their life. What's the point of earning money if don't have the time to enjoy it
Sometimes, people might pour all their energy into their work because they feel like they have to. If there's no genuine enjoyment and fulfillment out of it, you might start experiencing anxiety.
"The cognitive dissonance that builds up over time can start to cause some identity harm," Gavin tells Bored Panda. She says you might feel as if you are living the wrong life or living a life that's not right for you. "And that cost can be really challenging to pay," Gavin warns.
The career coach thinks that hustle culture negatively affects those who work, not because they enjoy it but because they feel they have to do it. "They feel as if that is the only way that they can achieve their goals," Gavin explains. "And in those situations, they give up a lot of other aspects of their lives to make that happen. And that can be really toxic."

If you have a really weird kink, it doesn’t matter you can keep going. But everyone can tell.
But are we all equal in the eyes of hustle culture? Some people have observed that those who urge others to work more and attribute their success to hustling might be coming from a place of privilege. Remember the infamous Kim Kardashian comment, "It seems like nobody wants to work these days," and the backlash that followed?
In response, actress and activist Jameela Jamil made a poignant observation on X (Twitter). "I think if you grew up in Beverly Hills with super successful parents in what was simply a smaller mansion… nobody needs to hear your thoughts on success/work ethic."
Phoebe Gavin agrees that participating in hustle culture is a privilege. She says there are three conditions necessary for those who want to take part in hustle culture. The first is to have the time and energy to do that. This is especially true in the context of families.
"Systematically, that is more likely to be an arrangement between a man who is hustling and a woman who is making up for all of the other gaps in his life so that he can dump everything into his career," Gavin observes.

Not A Lunatic… But Guy’s Has Been Fed Up With These Lunatics

Actually LINKEDIN was born as a tool to manage your contacts (have they changed jobs? do I know someone in that company or know someone in that company?) hence the link in the name. You would post things about your job, if someone could give you a hand looking for a better position, organize alumni meetings, and the like. Then HR and probably LinkedIn itself saw that it was a good tool for recruiting and marketing departments saw it as an advertising tool and that's when LinkedIn went down the drain.

They can take care of the kids and do all the chores and errands so the hustler can pour everything into their career. "That person is making a huge sacrifice so that the hustler can enjoy the privilege of the freedom to dump everything into their career," Gavin says.
"There are some folks who choose that dynamic. There are some folks who end up in that dynamic by accident. There are some folks who end up in that dynamic and one or more of the individuals involved are not happy about it."

The places that actually recognise and reward hard work are fairly rare. And they tend to also be places that understand employees need a life outside of work and to be able to relax properly. Being able to switch off and forget work is really important to avoid burnout and stay fresh and effective. But mainly - don’t do huge amounts of free work because you will just get taken for granted. You are damaging your health and relationships for nothing.

The second condition for being a hustler is to have the resources, Gavin says. She observes that hustlers might need to come from a background where they have the finances to do that.
If they have neither a stable financial background nor support from a partner, then they "just feel the harms of hustle culture without really being able to enjoy as much of the benefits," the career coach observes.
Those who come from working-class backgrounds have fewer chances to experience the positive effects of hustle culture, as well. "Hustling just by itself is not necessarily going to be the thing that makes you successful," Gavin observes.

The takeaway is that they don't want Indians (and other brown desis) and the Filipinos, who are a huge population in the UAE. Just for reference, my sister (we're Indian) used to get paid around 6-7k AED at a interior company while the white folks would get around 16-18k AED per month. And they all had very similar roles and no one was in a managerial position. The white folks knew my sister was paid less and it was the norm in UAE so they always paid for her meals and looked out for her when they invited her to go out together.

This is sorta like women who hate thirsty guys.

As a guy whose gone through thirsty spells but is now happily married, it's kinda pathetic how much more desirable a guy is to so many women when he isn't available.
So, how can one cultivate a good work-life balance and not become obsessed with work? Gavin says it depends on what work-life balance means to you. She advises people to stop thinking they can only have either/or. She suggests looking at the definition of 'work-life balance' as a spectrum.
On the one end of the spectrum are those who want to separate work and personal life completely. On the other – people who want those things integrated. These people might want to come in and out of work throughout the day, but they don't separate their 'work friends' from their 'real-life friends.' They're not against people at work knowing details about their personal life.

"And then there are lots and lots and lots of places in the middle," Gavin explains. "If you assume that there is one definition, and you strive for that definition, you are unlikely to achieve work-life balance for you because your definition might be different."
If you're struggling to determine what arrangement is best for you, Gavin has some advice. "Plot out a perfect day or a perfect week where everything goes right."
Don't try to achieve that perfect day or week because that's probably unachievable. But it will show you what your priorities are and how you would prefer to organize your time and your energy.

"If your focus on a particular day is work, then you are probably going to have to sacrifice a little bit on health, family, or hobbies. If a day is more focused on family, then you might have to sacrifice work and those other two. And that's okay as long as your priorities are being honored."
"You're not going to be able to accomplish everything in one day. You're not going to be able to accomplish everything in one week. But if your priorities are clear, then you know what to work toward. And if you're flexible, both with yourself and with the people around you about how those are organized from a day to day/week to week basis, then it's going to be a lot easier for you to achieve that balance."

They say that the application should match the job proposal, but for a lot of companies I couldn't even figure out what the core product that the company made was from the job proposal. It was just kind of a given that of course you knew what their company was and what they did. The job proposal was just buzz word after buzzword. That is all fine and dandy, but I don't care about your core values and the foundation your company is build on, or how good you canteen is, if what you need me to do does not match what I know how to do and have the competences for.

No roads to easy transportations of goods and people, no police to defend what is yours, no pool of skilled employess with a basic education who can work for you etc. A lot of those selfmade millionairs have a tendency to forget that the reason why they could build a succesful business is that there was a good foundation to build on. Try moving your business to a third world country where the taxes are much lover and see how well it goes. My bet is that it falls apart rather quickly as you cannot just ignore the rest of the society you are in like that. You may not like taxes, no one likes to part with their money like that, but running a society requires money and somebody has to pay those money. You cannot just pas the bill onto someone else because you don't like to pay a membership fee while you still want all the benefits.

There's something to the notion of firing people who are bad fits while the economy is still strong and they can get a better fit immediately. It's way better than keeping them until you can no longer afford to keep them, and making them jobless when they won't be able to find work. But if you let go of a talented person, you might just be admitting to your employees that you don't know how to manage talent and they have no reason to personally invest their energy in a job that doesn't respect their contributions.

If your business model relies on A players on C salaries, then you simply do not have a viable business and should look a another basic idea, as that is not how the world works. I am sorry, but I cannot find a shread of pity for you, except for the fact that Covid was rough on everyone.

AI has always been hyped well beyond what it could carry. and while it may be true that it can write basic code, I don't assume that your product can run on basic code. Writing code that "works" is easy, writing code that always works, and can be maintained is whole other game, which is kind of an artform. Especially when your code is used in some kind of saftycritical product, like the autopilot of a plane, in an industrial robot with the power to tear a person apart or in the medical business, e.g. a respirator, where a failure could kill a patient. So my suggestion is that you wake up really quickly and start to listen, or you are for some really rough time when the truth of how the world works hits you hard. Good luck with that attitude, my prediction is that you will soon be out of business without even realising why.
clairebear 1 year ago
Well if they are going to be replaced by AI there is not a lot they can do about that. So the argument is redundant. WFH means less congestion on the roads and public transport, less pollution, less fuel consumption, less stress, less time wasted commuting, better quality of life, better child care, less business overheads in office rent, rates, and utilities. He sounds the kind of boss who needs someone in front of him to belittle. And good luck with Bangalore.

The core of this is actually true. Society needs to decide if they want to have locals doing the work and getting fairly paid or not. These locals will need other locals to provide for them, supermarkets, bakery's, garages, ..., which generate more jobs. If the decision is made to outsource everything to the cheapest workforce in a different country, then it is basically not necessary to have a lot of people living in your own country. This decision includes creating worklessness and poirness, so lots of supporting industries are not necessary.

So the thing about this? Your obsession has nothing to do with "where you're supposed to be" and everything to do with what you spend the most time on. New parents are "obsessed" with their babies because that is an all-consuming time in life when there's really not a lot of room or mental capacity for anything else. As a kid I went through a phase where I played a LOT of Sims, which caused me to see basic human interactions in parody to Sim interactions (and my dorky friends and I would often jokingly say "deg-deg!" when parting company). I'm losing the thread here. Obsession is not confirmation of a life's higher calling, and talking about it at weird times like a vasectomy just means he's got poorly calibrated social skills.
