No Machine Can Do My Job As Resentfully As I Can

theonion.com — Replacing us with machines will increase profits, but can a dollar value be placed on the labors of someone who drinks before his morning shift just to get through the day? And when the machines go home will they take out their frustrations on family members and loved ones? I think not.

    Ah, and those machines can't clench their throats in frustration with each fish, knowing they make about $.01 per fish, and knowing they should be working for a union which would double or triple their income.
