I just saw The Menu (very good) and the military regime-esque sycophantic "YES CHEF" chants repulsed me. Gordon Ramsay has made a career out of screaming insults at his workers. How much of this is true to life and what is the leftist view on it?

I worked as a dish-hand and started and quit in the same weekend. Unbelievably high pressure and aggression from your co-workers. Is the answer "if they're well paid and have adequate time off it's fine"? Can a high pressure environment work with politeness and tact? Is the grotesque heirachy inherent in these workplaces?

I haven't read much so I have no clue.

    But that would require paying more money to workers :porky-scared-flipped:

      Yeah I was talking about a post-revolution change in the industry. Capital is unconcerned with the mental health of the workers and so has no reason to improve their conditions. If those workers unionised then maybe we could see real improvement now however
