This just hit me - why would you ever have a dissatisfied employee, or one who complains that their wages are too low, or one who shuns the thought of putting in Mandatory Unpaid Overtime, or who ever thinks a bad thought about the corp?


I mean, really; the cost of the "Work Ethic" personafix may be initially high (first you have to find a genuinely motivated employee, then pay beetle-doctors to spike up all the emotions and sensations related to having a good work ethic), but once you have one tailored, all you have to do is just produce them. Sure, some employees might not come with their own cyber to chip it, but you can install that and take it out of their wages (with interest) over a long time; they won't complain. After all, the Work Ethic chip tells them that everything the company does is for their benefit, and everything they do that benefits the company is also for their own benefit. So work work work, and don't complain, because whining brings down productivity, which hurts you in the end. And remember to put on a smile, so we'll all get along - workers who get along work better!
