The man is a lunatic. Prolonged struggle and strife without at least some visible progress is abject torture.

The existentialists didnât agree on much, but they all saw absurdity in existence. Is pushing a rock up a hill any more or less absurd than a 9-5 paper pushing job?

I think the argument is that the 9-5 is torturous by a particularly direct comparison to sysiphus. Granted, most work is easier than pushing a boulder, but just as life stealing.
