Explain that to Amazon warehouse workers who are measured down to the second, with a 3 strikes you are fired for not meeting their merciless actions/minute. There are labor laws for a reason, and we stopped allowing child labor a long time ago. It is not a social obligation in most situations, it is implemented as part of how the company operates and its culture. How are you not aware of that?

Of course I'm aware of that.

You're telling me that nobody in that Amazon warehouse who is unhappy has the ability to get a job doing something else?
