That's what exploitive labor jobs look like. Not all labor jobs exploit their labor. People literally died fighting for 40 hour weeks. The idea that laborers should be happy to work 60 hour weeks, that they're being thrown a bone is insane and cruel.

It's absurd that in 2017 one would have to argue in defense of a 40 hour week for the labor class. This argument has been going on for literally hundreds of years.

And yes, I too worked a string of labor jobs before getting into software. Landscaping, packing boxes, stocking shelves, cleaning streets, pumping cesspools, etc. The entire tenor of this thread reads "let them eat cake".
