Wayfair’s CEO has an end-of-year message for employees of the online furniture company: Don’t shy away from doing more work and blending your work with your life.

“Winning requires hard work. I believe that most of us, being ambitious individuals, find fulfillment in the joy of seeing our efforts materialize into tangible results,” CEO Niraj Shah said in a note to employees earlier this month celebrating the company’s recent success, and which a company spokesperson confirmed to CNN. “Working long hours, being responsive, blending work and life, is not anything to shy away from. There is not a lot of history of laziness being rewarded with success.”

        I load, operate, and unload a welding press for steel car parts. It’s not complicated, but it’s physically demanding when running fast enough to hit my production targets (put on a lot of muscle doing this job tbh). I chose two hours because that’s the amount of time between breaks.

        I’d love to watch a CEO put themselves in the hospital doing my job 😈
