"I wonder how many families he destroyed by forcing so much overtime down his employee’s throats."

Did a liberal DFU regular slip under the door?

Boyd didn't "force" his employees to do anything. It's the nature of working in that environment and the door swings both ways.

They were there because the wanted to be. The day that want stopped would be the day they walked out and I don't see the problem.

[SENTINEL]

I don't know how many times I heard the equivalent of "give up your (insert at will here...Vacation...Family Plans...Sleep...Night classes, etc) or your job."

Employees were free to leave and find other work, and the overlyloyal world class painter who went to Foose was a perfect example.

The same freedom that gave Boyd the right to own and run his own shop, and gave the employees the choice to put up with his constantly overdemanding and presumptive crap gives me the freedom to call him an absolute jerk.
