This feels like a dis to the click-bait articles xD.

Click-bait is a part of it, but frankly I think it's more a symptom than the problem.

The real issue is that we are all insane in this industry and have a high level of permanent stress.

It would only make sense if this article was called '42 things you should stop giving F#CKs about' XD.

Good idea, done!

would be interesting to know how you came to the number 42 ;P

I was joking about the article name πŸ˜‚ but the new title looks more friendly.

Yes and thanks a lot, because joking is the perfect remedy to stress.

You cannot really laugh and be stressed at the same time.

Don't believe me? Try do both.

Whaaaaat? I live and work in the South of France. Very few people are actually stressed because of their jobs. They live their life, eventually do some work when they are not on strike and don't really give a shit...

Stress is not a standard of any industry, it comes from individuals who cannot give good answers to fake problems.
