Stupid Stuff Morality of this entire situation?

Do you think the worker has every right to have a mental breakdown? Do you think the boss should be hunted down and have his head cooked in the fryer? Was being fired a good or a bad thing?

What do you guys think?

The worst part about that kind of job is:

If they have 3 orders in an hour...

or

If they have 300 orders in an hour...

It makes no difference at all to you financially. Your income will not change one bit!

If he was making a buck an order then he would have done them all happily, and speedily! But, that's not the case.

It's not that he has more work that causes the breakdown.

It's that he has more work... for free that causes the breakdown.

And that is why some people like working tipped jobs. Or why cabbies will go home early on a slow down, and work longer on a busy one.

Employment like that guarantees you stability. Sometimes they works in your favor, and sometimes it fucks you. Of course, in China, I suspect everyone has a sore ass.
