Not a coup. More like the continued ass kicking of labor by capital.

I had a leash (pager) in 1992 that was tugged often. The fur really flew if I didn't call back immediately. eg I almost got fired because I was in the shower at the gym (at 7:00am) and took 15 min to call back.

From what I can tell, since pretty much everyone I know has done a tour of duty at Amazon or equiv, things have only gotten worse.

"means they don't have to hire someone else"

Natch. But I see it more like someone else's failure to plan creates an (recurring) emergency for me.
