Amazon worker dies on warehouse floor. Workers told to keep going

Employees are in middle school so if something happens they should get a day off or something.

I expect to be working until I’m dead also

Lets hope the lawyers for the poor person's family and the workers forced to keep working are very good at their job.

Amazon employs around 900,000 people in logistics. The crude annual mortality rate in the USA is around 911/100,000. If there are 900,000 employees working eight hours a day then around seven people a day are dying of natural causes on their shift. This is without considering that they are being worked to the bone. >>> .00911 * (8 / (24 * 365)) * 900000 = 7.487671232876712

Why do I get the feeling Bezos will try to lobby to have the law allow Amazon to harvest dead employees’ organs and sell them for profit if they die in a warehouse? Logical extension of standard business mentality, if you’re honest enough.
