There's a scene in Boiler Room where Giovanni Ribisi cold calls, then hands over the prospect to his licensed senior, Vin Diesel. Forward to 2:01. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nPqJl8tWn0 You might also like Ben Affleck's conference table speech. "We are not saving the fucking manatees, guys."
I bet that guy would have died anyway--- not to diminish a terrible situation-- but I bet the actual copying and editing marathon had little to nothing to do with his death. I hang out with defense lawyers and I guess it's influencing my perception. LOL!
They can't pick up the phone to speak to their Gods? How about following the lead of bud fox meeting gecko in the original Wall Street? Seriously, what is wrong with these people?
He was too young to die! There's a "Law and Order Criminal Intent" called "Suicide Pact". Working for a Bond Firm who overloads their young workers to the point of a mental breakdown all in the name of money. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0629556/ Wall Street Journal ran articles in the 1980s and 1990s on thirty-year old middle managers dying of heart attacks from work-overload and burnout at alarming rates. I don't remember what the name the psychologist pinned the phenomena at, anyone? More WSJ articles based off the research of âAge of Angstâ Zachary Ortega http://books.google.com/books?id=VXINsDT1sFwC&pg=PA275&lpg=PA275&dq=“Age+of+Angst”+(Zachary+and+Ortega+1993)&source=bl&ots=Vyxd-tQ1Vt&sig=JwcGaVM1qwm6ismgtr6umY2v6ko&hl=en&sa=X&ei=1IQlUuCYKay7jALowYHQCg&ved=0CEAQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=%E2%80%9CAge%20of%20Angst%E2%80%9D%20(Zachary%20and%20Ortega%201993)&f=false One book that might help deal with this: http://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman/dp/0374533555 Grandluxe, is Karōshi still killing the younger middle-managers in Japan like the WSJ reported in the 1980s-1990s? I wonder how this is impacting the Chinese workers, with nets around Foxconn, I wonder how the Chinese handle their levels of stress with money now! Famine and War rolled through China for Millenniums, how will stress and anxiety impact them with no outlet of release?
The only thing I can add is a quote from Charles Bukowski: Slavery was never abolished, it was only extended to include all the colors.
Dying in general is one thing. Dying for some douchebag who is just using you for unpaid or even underpaid slave labor is another thing entirely. A few months back I saw some teabagger on TV argue that African Americans should be grateful that slavery gave their ancestors food and shelter "for free". Never before so much wanted to jump into my TV screen and stomp a man like he was a cockroach.
