Hey, Startups: 6 Reasons Why #WorkCanWait



Entrepreneurs, you work tirelessly in the modern day trenches of coworking spaces, incubators and oftentimes your parents' basements on business ideas you believe in. While your drive and dedication is more than admirable, sometimes it pays to take a breather and close the computer screen once and a while to take care of, you know, you.

However, Microsoft's recent #GetItDone campaign, which [awkwardly] promotes working from wherever you are via the latest version of Office 365, would beg to differ. Last week, web-based collaboration app creator37signalswrote a blog posttaking up beef with the workaholic-centric campaign. As a result, the company crowdsourced a number of hilarious graphicsvia the hashtag #WorkCanWaitfrom readers, who took it upon themselves to poke fun at Microsoft's own ads.

So go ahead. Give yourself a break, and get in on the joke by taking a look at the real Microsoft ads and the readers' riffs in the next few slides. And remember, it's just because we love you.
