I have to wonder if this neologism comes from something like either their parents not taking any vacations and so they never got the examples ('Wait, you spend time with your kids?') or from a cultural aversion to taking time off for oneself. ('Taking time off? Sounds like someone's not really committed to the success of the company.')

Maybe also a little of column A, but DEFINITELY a shitload of column B
