Hot diggity! And when this temporary lord and master leaves,
who'll be our new one then?

Having heard about the disgraceful and utterly despicable treatment of walmart employees, I wonder if this guy is held to the same standards... I doubt it. Maybe the execs should be put in the spot of a common worker and see if they like it? Maybe then they'll be a little more humane... people can only be pushed to "productivity" so far and the day our society ramped up the speed is the day it pointed a gun to its head. (I mean, there comes a point when things go so fast that more and more mistakes are made. And when that happens, things start to fall to pieces. Never mind what happens to the people overstressed by the productivity: Health problems (physical, emotional, and mental) occur. And that in turn lowers productivity and increases costs.

Our society needs to stop, smell some roses, and take things at a proper pace. Or it will melt down.
