I don't despise work-jerks. If that's how they want to spend their lives, who am I to criticize? However, when someone like that gets into a management position and expects others to adopt their approach to work, that's a problem.
Also, work-jerks should never have kids. I knew a woman like that who never spent any time with her family. When the divorce came, her husband wanted primary custody of the kids, but she wouldn't have it - what would people think? Now the kids are looked after by iPads when it's her week with the kids. Sad.
