The Soviet Union glorified the 'Stakhanovite' movement, where workers were encouraged to perform 'тяжёлая работа' at superhuman speeds for the good of the state. Classic authors like Tolstoy and Dostoevsky often depicted 'тяжёлая работа' as a path to spiritual purification or a reflection of the peasant's plight. In modern Moscow or St. Petersburg, 'тяжёлая работа' is often used to describe the 'burnout' culture of high-pressure office jobs.
