I'm like, you don't understand.
Everybody I'm working with is working 70 hours a week.
That was not the case a couple of years ago.
I love to work and I love to win and I love to be around people that are smarter than me and I love to build incredible companies.
I love it.
I might touch on that.
I just think it's hard to find the types of people, harder, I should say, to find the types of people, particularly outside of the UK, in Europe, that are willing to put the effort in that I think is required to be successful.
I just think it's challenging.
And I think it's very difficult to fire people in Europe, as you know.
I mean, you want to hire in Germany or France and Spain and decide you want to fire somebody, it's next to impossible.
And so having things like performance management and so on and so forth are challenging.
I think...
Europeans have a different expectation in terms of work-life balance.
I'm not saying it's wrong, it's just different.
And I think that can make it challenging.
It's also just a mentality.
Nothing irritates me more when I get into these companies than when I see people whose mentality is, what can I get out of the company for giving the least?
Drives me fucking insane.
And I will tell you, when I got back into Snowflake, I saw it everywhere.
And it just it's like, look, we are here.
