If you whip your horses they pull the chariot faster.
If you keep whipping them they pass out from exhaustion or injure themselves and have to be killed.
Good thing there are 8 billion other horses clamoring to fill the gap.
Reminds me how Amazon started running low on people willing to work in its warehouses.
Just need to build it further away, you already killed the competition in the area so the residents can pay extra.
Why use long-term thinking when short-term thinking do trick (in the short term)
electrocutes you when you think about your wife
Fuck yeah, sign me up. But now I’m masturbating at my desk instead of in the bathroom.
electrocutes
Yeah, but just the one time.
It’s funny how many people don’t get electrocute means dead, shock means survived.
It’s literally a contraction of electricity and execution.
Productivity shouldn’t be the be all and end all but that’s a different debate
It’s a schizoid world
They try to squeeze the last bit of productivity out of the workforce - while salaries stagnate.
Sure, there are studies that show that a good work-life-balance (like the 4 day workweek) increase productivity and reduce sic days - but that doesn’t feel right.
It gives the boss a much better feeling to scream at his employees, force overtime, micromanage, set impossible goals and work them to the bone. How can you feel like a boss if you don’t increase your workers misery?
People in the US go hungry, the US government has so much cheese in stockpile that they use caves/abandoned mines to store it.
Release me into the cheese mine and they will have none withing 48 hours.
Release me as well to make that 12 hours.
Humans suddenly evolve into a species getting off on electrocution.
It reminds me of the story about that guy who trained his donkey to go with less food, and just as he was getting it to go with no food at all,the stupid animal died.
Capitalism is fine enough if properly regulated. But that, of course, is the problem. Properly regulaing it.
Except no its still bad to allow exploitation of people’s labor like that no matter how you try to lower the impact.
it is a problem because the people in power are the ones that have to be regulated.
the only fix is ending capitalism.
Its about how to best exploit you not how to make you most productive.
