Slavery is dead. Long live slavery
Mental torture by employers is the new form of slavery. I fail to understand why employers think they are God’s gift on earth? That they exist so we exist too? I have been listening to tales of frustration from my colleagues and I feel it’s unfairness that’s rampant.
William Wilberforce and Abraham Lincoln might have fought to end slavery and the form that existed then. But the idea of slavery never went away. Today in modern times there is different form of slavery. Humans are made to work at night because some people in this world cannot wait. Everything has to happen instantly. Employers think that just because they are paying, they can say anything and everything. Employees are hired because of certain expertise. Employers should think that they are previledged to have experts working with them, that they have been more fortunate than others, that employees are as much humans as they are.
Slavery is long dead but the idea still is practiced in different forms. Employers pay money to employees because they need their expertise. They are not paid for nothing. They deserve it.
