I'm a third world sweathop worker. I was forced to make clothes here ever since I could walk. There are hundreds of people packed in to this tiny windowless room, and every time there is a fire I die. My coworkers can't even afford alcohol. Every time I hear decadent American line cooks complain about their working conditions, all I can think is, they have it so easy.



Yes, this illuminates the point even better. Software devs are among the best treated first world employees. In a global perspective, most (but not all) complaints are laughable.


Stop complaining, there are starving children in Africa!


Get off the internet and back to work!


I like your dark humour. Can you please give me reading material for the next year ? Ideally your most recommended books on _life_.
