I Would Have to Pay Them to Work There


A factory in China that make electric appliances has instituted a new policy for employees who go to the bathroom during work hours. They "fine" them 5 yuan (about half a euro, which is roughly .60 to .65 cents US) each time they leave their work area. Of course, they don't fine them if it's an emergency. Hell, I'd be emergencying all day long. On top of that, they fine the supervisors 2 yuan each time one of their workers leaves the work area. I thought communism was supposed to create a workers' paradise. Paradise my ass!
