Here again though, I disagree with the assumption that those should be our only two choices. Why is democracy in government common sense but workplace democracy is just crazy talk?

Exactly like corporate governance, except that instead of stockholders with voting rights weighted by size and class of their stockholdings, the people voting on the basic rules which govern the degree and manner in which routine authority is delegated to elected directors, officers, etc., are the employees each having an equal vote.
> Would employees have voters rights over every single decision that would be made?
On a fundamental level, yes but they'd probably in practice delegate much routine authority to elected representatives who would serve like a board of directors and who would in turn likely be given, and exercise, the right to delegate some of that authority to particular individual employees (directly to officers, who then delegate to subordinate managers, etc.)
Do you mean every company should be a worker owned coop? If that's your suggestion, that's already possible. Why not continue giving people the option of working in a traditional hierarchical enterprise, and working in a coop? Why make the latter mandatory?
Citizens don't have rights over every single decision in a democracy either. They elect representatives. Worker democracy could work similarly. As for why it is "necessary", presumably it would guide decisions so that the needs of the workers were taken into account, which very often doesn't happen.
Worker-owned coops exist. No one is stopping people from forming them. By all means, help develop these organisations. But the government shouldn't be stepping in and prohibiting other voluntary organisational structures.

Would employees have voters rights over every single decision that would be made? That seems inefficient.
I don't think applying democracy to a workplace is crazy, I just don't understand why it's necessary.
