Hard Work Like A Horse Ala Elon Musk

A work culture without knowing the time at Musk’s company or the term hustle culture, according to the University of Indonesia sociology lecturer, Lugina Setyawati, is a term for millennial culture that embraces workaholism or workaholism. A very dynamic start-up company culture and very busy working hours encourage the growth of this hustle culture.

To me, If you want to progress quickly, delegation is usually the thing. “

Actually the crazy work culture at Musk’s company is not surprising. The flamboyant, smart and visionary Musk is himself a workaholic. Every day Musk has a lot to manage. Including to realize his crazy idea of ​​building a new city on Planet Mars. That’s why Musk admits that he works a lot. He also often held meetings until 02.00 in the morning.

In the past he worked hundreds of hours a week. Sometimes the billionaire even sleeps on the floor under his desk at Tesla. “There are times, weeks … I haven’t calculated the exact numbers, but I only sleep a few hours, work, sleep a few hours, work, seven days a week,” Musk said while pursuing production of the Tesla Model 3. [minggu] it must be 120 hours. “

Because of that, Musk stifled the practice of working 8 hours a day or about 40 hours a week (5 working days). This kind of work duration is considered by the CEO of Tesla to be very insufficient to do something big, especially if you want to change the world. Musk suggests working around 80 to 100 hours a week. That means working 5 days a week, or about 16 to 20 hours per day. “Nobody has ever changed the world by working just 40 hours a week,” he said.

The tweet sparked numerous comments from Twitter users. Most of them unanimously reject Musk’s opinion. The fact is that long hours of work do not necessarily mean that productivity will match expectations. As described in an analysis by Stanford University economist John Pencanvel in 2014. John looked at data on factory workers during World War I and a number of more recent studies.
