Samsung gets government greenlight to increase 64 hours work week

In bad Korea they force their people to work debilitating hours for low pay. It is so bad they can't afford to start a family, let alone find time for companionship.

Why scientists are always the most cucked workers ffs it's pathetic
- Marx failed to take into account that nerds are easily bullied
  
  To be fair Marx and most of his circle were nerds but none of them was easily bullied.
  
  I honestly think this is true from my experience chatting about labour with coders
  Also because they're grateful to their bosses they get to do their interests as a job. I'd imagine for researchers this is a massive deal
- I work with a bunch of scientists and they are the most comfy libs I've ever seen. I try and organize my coworkers and I get the most passive no I've ever heard. "OH I'm sooo glad you're working too protect my rights, but I just can't be fucked to care" is essentially the answer I get most of the time.
- Why scientists are always the most cucked workers
  Smh it's because scientists are ELITES secretly running society
- Young scientists are convinced they are headed for bigger and better things and that the work they do is very valuable - either intellectually or personally or both. They do not see themselves as of the same class as janitors, they are just temporarily overworked for the cause and things will get better later when they are in charge or in some senior role. They are "paying their dues".
  Then 90% of them realize there is no such job waiting for them and they slowly shed their belief system. But it can take decades.
  
  thats pretty much it, alot of them thinking finishing a phd, and they get jobs handed to them, they arnt, unless you come from a prestigious university and a wealthy background which opens alot of doors automatically, eg connections. additionally alot of them believe the jobs are in academia, they arnt either because its too comepetitive, and most of them are writing grants anyways as a PI, or doing some low quality paper as a post doc(and not hire dyet). thats why im hearing on other platforms that phds are defecting from thier fields for another
- It's a field that self-selects for insanely driven monomaniacs. All the lab PI's I ever met worked 70 hours a week because they just loved the research that much. One of my bosses bragged about working 20 hours a day to finish his PhD. It probably wasn't that much, but he got his degree in 3.5 years, which is crazy fast for the field. Anyone who can't handle the workload washes out quickly.
  
  Yanks are allegedly particularly insane, I get it you have no money contrains but really crazy stories
- The job is much less alienated than average and people are willing to endure a lot of abuse for less alienation.

Ah yes, the "researchers think best on no sleep, intense stress, and no life" approach.
Afterall, it's not like they're doing real work - like golf meetings and lazy financial crimes - because that would imply their lives have value and they do something their bosses cannot. They're just mobile tools, and can simply run for longer, so I dunno, set a big bowl of modafinil and protein slurry in the lounge, they like that crap right? I gotta practice my swing.

- somehow less stupid considering you are literally in the ice apocalypse instead of being in the dying throws of a country that, by current demographic trends, ceases to exists in 50 years
  
  by current demographic trends, ceases to exists in 50 years
  hey, I wonder why that is
- i have to finish that lib game, its actually pretty good.
  
  It's one of my favorite games, I keep wanting to play the sequel but I've got no money to get it plus my computer is dogshit so I'd have to upgrade that first and that costs even more money

Hell Joseon

Reducing the amount of time people have for socializing and starting families will definitely fix the demographic collapse!
- Ripping copper out of the walls, but for demography.
