your criteria of a sweatshop is probably a lot different than their criteria for a sweatshop. Looking at it from our perspective, it is definately bad but they may think it’s the best job in the world.

Hell, people that work for PennDOT probably think that us people that actually have to work more than 3 hours a week are working in a sweatshop, compared to their job. 😃
