That was a nice one, though I find it a bit funny. Maybe he was unlucky to have a tough supervisor how had a bad day and showed it on him.
We do all wierd kind of part-time jobs here in UK. The difference is you get hourly pay. You do have to work you shift time and not allowed to take breaks. I recon when I was working in a firm, we had this quota for breaks. If you work 4 hrs , then 15 min break, 5 hrs -20 min break, 6 hrs -5 min and 7 hrs -30min break.!!!
Its kind of good abt this type of job and stuff coz , things will be done unlike in Indian govt offices, you can pop out whenever you need or come and sign and go home!
The moral is 'Time is precious'. If you waste time, believe me, its just you are wasting youself or showing your laziness. In this competitive world, its you and time. Either you work and someone gonna take your work.
