    Exactly. I myself was in an very stressful job and was not going to die from it. Just gotta suck it up and be a man. There's a lot more people that are doing jobs that do deserve your concern.

    Its like hey, lets take a nice and thoughtful post and then crap all over it the best we can instead of just letting it be a nice thought someone had.
    It's just stupid dude. The OP talks about them "putting their lives on the line." That's completely ridiculous and deserves to be called it. It might be a nice post in theory but it's so over the top it just looks dumb.

    Actually, when you're working 14+ hours days, you are putting your life on the line, no matter the profession -- Your body wasn't designed to be under constant stress like that. This is why even with good diets, people who work that much usually fall first. It's why people die of exhaustion.

    According to whom?

    Look I'm not saying working 14 hours a day is the healthiest thing in the world, but there are millions of people all over the world who do it on a daily basis and are doing just fine. And I think a vast majority of people in the world can say they've been overworked like that at some point in their lives. I certainly have. And I'm sure some people have died from the stress of being overworked, but that doesn't mean that everyone who is overworked is putting their life on the line. That's like saying "hey, people have gotten in car accidents, so I'm putting my life on the line when I drive home from work!"

    Soldiers put their lives on the line.
    Firefighters put their lives on the line.
    Cops put their lives on the line.
    Miners put their lives on the line.

    Yoshida sitting in an office with an intense work schedule, is not putting his life on the line. That's ridiculous.

    2 years i need a lot of money to pay some debts and was working from 8 AM to 10PM(some days to 12PM) monday to friday and weekends i would do 9AM to 6PM. I did that for almost a year. My gf's roomate has been doing 7AM to 9PM monday to friday for the past 4-5 months and she's not the strongest looking girl, she looks damn fragile if you ask me and yet she goes clubbing 3 times a week after work. So yeah.... your body can handle a lot more then you think. Our bodies was not designed to sit a desk all day, before civilization we were hunters and we worked our bodies a hell lot more. That's what it was designed for.

    Whether or not you like the wording, why does it have to be ripped apart? People are vultures.

    It's not just the wording, it's the sentiment.

    And there's nothing that says it HAS to be ripped apart, but ridiculous things stated in a public forum tend to be called what they are.

    All I got from the OP was a sincere concern for the general well being of Yoshi and crew.
