Reply #26: Yes, it's outrageous, and, yes, there are plenty of workers in the US [View All]

who aren't allowed to go to the bathroom except on scheduled breaks and lunch hour (which is usually not an hour.) It's not just checkout clerks and factory workers, it's teachers, too. And teachers are often forced to work all during their lunch break, supervising students in the lunch room. Most elementary school teachers must do this and many high school teachers have to do it as well. It's all the fault of those damned cheap-labor conservatives who care nothing about workers as people. It's all about paying workers the lowest possible wage. Don't like it? Quit and they'll hire someone else. These guys love high unemployment because of the desperate people it creates.
