A hard day's work

Those in the business know that working at Microsoft can get pretty intense at times.  In fact, sometimes the expectations at Microsoft drive some employees to work extremely long and hard until one day they snap and decide that there's more to life and no amount of Starbuck's coffee will get them to work 120 hours a week anymore.  Virg has always wondered what happens to Daddy when he goes into work at the Redmond Microsoft Campus.  Sometimes he comes home looking pretty beat.  But last week, Daddy came in the door looking like he had just run a 5K race through a gauntlet of rainbow powder puffs.  Virg knew at this point, he would have to give Daddy a talk about when to put your foot down and say no more powder puffs, no matter how much they are paying you.

Daddy, how many more black ties and white shirts will have to suffer before you say "no more" to the Microsoft powder puff machine?
