So you accept the status quo without reporting your employers for breaking the law? Sounds pretty miserable. I've gotten chewed out for accidentally going over my 5th hour on the clock without taking a lunch.

Later, I figured that the teeth weren't teeth, they simply guided the stalks into a place where, I suppose, they were cut by much smaller blades and carried into the stomach, intestines etc.

Lovely imagery!
