It's okay to be a sociopath to people so long as others have it worse?
No, sorry. Nothing requires Amazon to behave this way, and it is foolish besides - if you burn through people you are are basically training people up who then walk away and work for your competition. By having them work 80+ hours you are getting less actual work out of them then 40 hours. You are spending more on health care because this sort of environment causes stress. Etc.
We ain't going to shut up and take it just because there are worse things out there.
