The worker dying at Amazon reminds me of a movie I saw years ago.

(Worker dying at Amazon story: see https://democraticunderground.com/100221175462 if you haven't already.)

The movie was THEY SHOOT HORSES, DON'T THEY (1969). If you've never seen it, see it.

The Amazon worker who died reminded me so much of the Red Buttons character in the movie.
