Excessive overtime is routine, despite a legal limit of 36 hours a month. One payslip, seen by the Observer, indicated that the worker had performed 98 hours of overtime in a month
youve got to be kidding me! dont tell the westerners about the rough hours they are putting becuase they are working 40-70 hours PER WEEK here.....not 134/mo.

Woo said: "Suicides were not connected to bad working conditions. There was a copy effect. If one commits suicide, then others will follow."

Also, if I jumped out of a window, I'd probably shout "Wooooooo!"

The copy effect is very real for suicides. Read the book "The Tipping Point" and there is a long section about it.
