His friend thinks he's going to kill himself. That's why he sent him the article. Instead of taking care of his brittle state, the OP is sharing this with us, like an innocent yet doomed child.

We are all doomed without Christ.

Hope this helps

If you really want to know, a small history:

Well, my friends and in particular this one have highly stressful jobs.

He is right now in Japan working for a mega corp and he works 21 hours and tries to sleep the other 3.

He is staying now in a bubble hotel due to a very tight budget and has to ask others for charity and food
and he sends me random stuff sometimes, like he walking around in a park or just walking in japan on the streets.

I read the article and decided to share to see if someone else would find it enticing, that is pretty much it.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hope that's an exaggeration. If not, definitely illegal.

Well he can keep the rhythm for a day or two, and he actually is pretty desperate for the job, as it is a temporary one but can keep him glued for an even bigger contract, so he gives in 100% and then some more to try to impress the Japanese.

He confessed he is taking some additional drugs to help with energy and output , but nootropics is a field I am not very well versed at, unlike he is.

Also Venezuelans abroad can not afford to be too choosy on their jobs, specially when they have to support family back home or in other countries so they do things like that on occasion, as slave driven as it might be.

The day he sent me the video he was a bit off. He Crashed hard after a couple days but then slept on the weekend and began again, but he finished it already and is back home hoping the Corp will rehire him due to this extremely fast output.

What I find odd though is how there are computer signals that pop up on desktops to remind people they need to stop working, yet if the boss has not left the building they have to remain in their posts.

Even with all that he is in love with the country and culture.
