Is this unusual? I feel like in our modern hellscape of capitalism, this probably happens frequently.
“This is his mother. He died from being overworked.”
“I don’t think you’re considering how this affects the team. I’ll see you in an hour.”
If the management was notified about his death, then this makes it even more hilarious.
The Guangdong Second Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital pronounced Gao dead that afternoon. The cause of his death was a sudden heart attack, which could have been the result of overwork.
