These are not flexes at work:
> I haven’t taken a single day’s leave in the last 1 year
> Although my commute time is 1.5 hours each way, I still go to the office
> I’m usually up until 1 a.m., solving customer issues
> I never take sick leave and work even when I’m not feeling well
> Although I am on leave, you can call me any time. I am available 24x7
> I always work through lunch.
> I inspire others to work harder by coming to the office on Saturday myself
