    I’m sure he won’t mind. Worrying about that doesn’t sound like working.

    I work from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed. I work seven days a week. When I’m not working, I’m thinking about working, and when I’m working, I’m working. I sit through movies, but I don’t remember them because I’m thinking about work.

      That sounds like mental illness.

      ETA: Replace “work” in that quote with practically any other activity/subject, whether outlandish or banal.

      I sit through movies but I don’t remember them because I’m thinking about baking cakes.

      I sit through movies but I don’t remember them because I’m thinking about traffic patterns.

      I sit through movies but I don’t remember them because I’m thinking about cannibalism.

      I sit through movies but I don’t remember them because I’m thinking about shitposting.

      Obsessed with something? At best, you’re “quirky” (depending on what you’re obsessed with). Unless it’s money. Being obsessed with that is somehow virtuous.

        Valid argument for sure

        It would be sad if therapists kept telling him that but he could never remember

        I don’t think you become the best tech CEO in the world by having a healthy approach to work. He is just wired differently, some people are just all about work.
