We've put entrepreneurs who brag about 100-hour work weeks on a pedestal. We've nodded along as "thought leaders" preach that sleep is for the weak and vacation days are for losers.

But at some point, this hyper-performative mindset crossed a line from inspirational to...well, just plain sad as fuck.
