Oh, why can't I be loved AND feared, like God?
Why? Because you're the boss, we're the workers. It goes back to caveman days. Ten guys killed the mammoth while the boss yelled at them. Then the boss got all the meat and they got all the toenails. Because that's the way life works. Next came the Renaissance, and the invention of the time clock, which meant the boss no longer had to waste time checking on his employees and could become Pope and marry his sister. With recent times came unions and workers' rights. Which were then taken away in even more recent times.
Wrap it up, Homer. That catwalk is starting to buckle.
My point is, no matter what, Mr. Burns, the boss sucks, so why shouldn't you?
