    The story makes it even worse. There was supposedly an 80 hour cap in place but they disregarded even that. 80! That’s basically 12 hour shifts 7 days a week.

    I would have burned the place down.

      text says that they were employees of a bank, not owners. it’s just a bad choice of words, i suppose.

        on the other hand its pretty stupid to hospitalize yourself for working too much for the bank.

        i’d imagine a bank employee probably has more options than someone working on a kitchen out of desperation. please don’t do that to yourself out of grindset mentality.

          it all comes, in the end, to how much money this person has: ceo’s of big companies normally have enough money to quit working altogether and still be able to keep their standard of living up until they die, and sometimes even of their descendants. therefore, they are part of the capitalist class. i doubt any of these analysts can do the same, and this is why they are part of the working class.
