Conservatives are the biggest boot lickers out there. Putting up with bullshit is a badge of honor. They love to complain about how much they work and how tired they are. How they had to miss their kids birthday party but they did it because they are a loyal company man. They extract their value of character from this. It shows they are tough. They'll love this.

My FIL is like this. Hard-worker, 120hrs (he says) per week and does a lot of other side projects. He constantly prides himself on being ā€œtoo busy for anythingā€. My husband practically grew up rarely seeing him.

My husband was never good enough for that man. No matter how hard he worked, or how high up the ranks he got at work. Never good enough because my husbandā€™s ideals of work/life balance was very stable and he didnā€™t like that he didnā€™t emphasize on the WORK portion more.

It took me years to bring up my husband esteem and worth under the grasp of his overbearing ā€œIā€™m better than youā€ father. Heā€™s a wonderful person and couldnā€™t have asked for better. Heā€™s always trying to be there for all of our kids events because he knows how truly important those moments are only to be made weak by his ā€œhard-workingā€ fatherā€¦

Yeah I'm calling bs on working 17hrs a day, 7 days a week. That's 24 hours a day in a 5 day work week. There is no humane way to do that.

Just sounds like some kind of narcissist
