Working overtime and overnight as an IT professional can lead to divorces, drug addiction, and suicides due to work-life imbalance. While working hard may please managers, it tells a different story at home. Workaholism is an illness, and exploiting employees to their limits will cause them to quit without notice. Pushing people to work more hours and compromising quality to improve productivity can make work less satisfying and increase turnover in the long run. Managers who impose impossible deadlines just to extract more labor sacrifice product quality and employee well-being.

4. Theories of Value
 The Spanish Theory, for one, held that only a
fix of Value existed on earth, and therefore the
path to the accumulation of wealth was to
learn to extract it more efficiently from the
soil or from people's backs.
 The English Theory that the Value could be
created through ingenuity and technology.
 The Indians Theory that moved huge
quantities of gold across the ocean and all they
got for their effort was enormous inflation.

story

Wars

development

make work less enjoyable and less satisfying

turnover and non can tell you what
replacement of an experienced worker

12. Reprise
 “During the past year, I did some consulting for a
project that was proceeding so smoothly that the
project manager knew she would deliver the
product on schedule. She was summoned in front
of the management committee and asked for a
progress report. She said she could guarantee
that her product would be ready by the deadline
of March 1, exactly on time according to the
original estimate. The upper managers chewed
over that piece of unexpected good news and
then called her in again the next day. Since she
was on time for March 1, they explained, they
deadline had been moved up to January 15.“

13.  Manager prefers to hopelessly impossible
schedule to extract more labor from
workers
 People under time pressure don’t
work better; they just work faster
and sacrifice product quality and
their own job satisfaction.
