Just a funny instance. I was talking to my in-laws, because 'tis the season.
My FIL is a strip-mall owner and leader of a small local congregation. A common quote in this church is “Are you honest in your dealings with your fellow men?”
In just some aside chat, some of the teenagers hanging around the house said they had money from shoveling the roof of the strip mall. Some of these businesses are owned by in-laws, but none of the teens are their kids or anything; they're all from church.
They were paid $10/hour (same thing I was paid 20 years ago). They had to work at past 10pm, due to the businesses being open until then, in the dead of winter with 50-year record snowfalls and sub-zero temps.
Their tools were shovels, sleds, and a truck, and the mall includes 15 businesses, so it is a sizable 1.5 story roof. They had no safety equipment, no lights besides their phones and the headlights of the truck and a bit of light from the streetlights, and the snow on the roof was over two feet — with a mess of uneven roofing, machines, and exposed sharp metal concealed under the snow.
I was stunned, so I just scoffed and said “Is that legal? Isn't that kind of… dishonest?”
The pastor's reply? “Well, only to the government.”
