    In the U.S. you might lose your job if you don’t. One missed alarm.

    Good luck.

      But if you hit oncoming traffic you’ll still be late for work and also potentially kill someone and end up incarcerated for vehicular manslaughter.

      I legitimately cannot imagine a scenario where you have time to clear this eye hole, but don’t have another 30s to clear the rest of the windshield. It’s pure laziness, regardless of how exploited your surplus labor might be.

      Yeah but the US is fucked when it comes to the working situation and workers rights.

        Sure. Though that doesn’t change the shittiness at all. It just represents the issue the loudest, and one that occurs in more places than just the U.S.: Abysmal working conditions and shitty bosses. Forgive me for pointing out something I think everyone already understands, though we are part of a global economy. To create effective change we should also act as a global force to promote those changes.

        In a perfect world, at least. Sadly, problems on our own doorstep takes away a lot of energy to do just that.
