Worked till Death ?

Can work really caused extreme damage to one's life ? Till maybe death ? Today's new paper headline make it a point that it is highly possible .... or maybe it has already caused someone to die ...

Though cause of death is still unknown but from the reports and her last blog entry, work is definitely the critical and key cause. Different people handles stress differently, this slient killer comes in various form, but usually mainly from work, as it takes up at least 8 to 10 hours of your daily 24 hours life ( where 6 to 8 hours you are zzzZZZzzz ).

Work piled on, which could be previous loads of backlogs or poor processes or how the initial project was planned and implemented. If one can clear a task in a day, doesn't imply he/she can clear 1000 tasks in a week. Some tasks are repetitive and mundane which means logically more people doing will help in delivering the overall objective in a faster manner.

From what is known, quite obviously people above her is either turning a blind eye on the load shit of work she is handling ... then hoping miracle might happen. But then the cruel truth now tells them, what they did not do to relieve the bad situation now turns into a tragedy.

But of course it could be also she didn't take the stress well and somehow turned herself into some working machine trying to prove herself real hard in this "FORTUNE 500" company. The report states she only got $2,600 a month as a partner support manager, the title definitely did not match the pay.

Anyway, $ aside, her direct boss is still responsible. How can one do not know the work load of the team ? And at what kind of logical speed and timeframe can one finish the shitload of work ?
Working till wee hours ... waking up early to work .... working during weekends ? All these undetected ?

It should be the talk for a while at the "Fortune 500" company

Hope that all the people who are involved directly or indirectly maybe should start waking up their f*cking idea .....
