Whoever said slavery ended
never worked in a corporate office.
Made to work through sick leave,
rewarded with a “dedicated staff” award,
or a pep talk on team spirit.
And if you are lucky,
you get a new job title
without a change in account balance,
just a rebranded slave tag.

That is commercialism at its best and the capitalistic system that spawned the first slave trade. Well done
Thank you. I appreciate your thoughts on it.
You are most welcome. All things have their good and bad and Capitalism's bad is it is fueled off greed and disregards the rights of fellow men and their freedom.
