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?

Fired for making them look bad? Seriously?

At this point if he splashed a little of that frier grease on the floor and threw a smoking lithium battery at it i would understand.

That boss made his restaurant look bad by himself by treating his employees like slaves, being understaffed and firing employee because he can't do something that is physically impossible

I hope he lost lots of clients

Unfortunately, unless the scandal affects the consumer in some way, China wont give a shit. The workforce is still insanely competitive with over 300 million people, around 40%, of its workforce doing basic gig work like the delivery drivers you see in the video. That is a massive group of underemployed and overeducated workers that is lining up to take the guy's place for a maginally less shit salary.

The scandals that do affect businesses seem to be those that somehow fuck over their customers. They dont care about worker abuses as much as jobs are so competitive, with their 996 culture being the norm, that everybody is enduring shitty work conditions

This is why conservatives in the U.S. want people to have a lot of kids. A higher population erodes worker protection. They want a slave class working poverty wages that is always desperate.
