When machines break down and need fixing, or a big order needs to go out?
I'll bet they complain they can't get anyone to do any extra effort.
It cuts both ways, and being reasonable and flexible is a low cost way to
make employees happy. It goes without saying that if it is abused,
something has to be done.

If they were to treat their machines like they want to treat their
employees (like garbage), then as soon as their $75,000 machine breaks
down a.k.a. is late to work, they will have to throw it out and get a
new one. Can't tolerate any late to works, regardless of the excuse, no
working on repairing the machine, just throw it out and get a new one...

It's just as ridiculous when it's applied to humans, but more
disgusting. Disposable employees.
