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.

The one I worked with was in management. In spite towing the company line about leaving work at home, and not letting people stay late, etc. etc.. He created an atmosphere where you felt your job wasn't secure if you did not go over and above what was called of you.
