Rumors say that an engineer at Facebook Seattle died in his seat today. Can anyone confirm this?
This is the real dufaq!

Died in their seat? That cant be Facebook’s fault. I seriously doubt a white collar worker could be literally worked to death.

@qualcomm. It really isn't that common here. Sure, there have been a couple of high profile cases but overwork really isn't that much of an issue. Productivity in Japanese companies is awful and most people are deskwarming and hate their families so don't go home.
