"No worker should have to face the choice: Do I take a bathroom break, or do I get paid?"
Just do what I did: steal a faucet fixture every time you go to the bathroom.
That's good, recyclable brass. Win-win.
All the people who wanted to do that study were fired for exhibiting a bad attitude and toking up in the bathroom.
