People still use bedlam as idiom for craziness even in USA, it actually comes from a name of mental asylum outside of London. Sending to Coventry to me seems much more horrific than simple ghosting.
Maybe. And maybe aggressively punching the clock served as therapeutic way to express your hatred towards your employer, scars from bruised knuckles were badge of honor proudly displayed in front of your colleagues in factory canteen. Kids these days do not even know how to properly hate their job anymore, they just quit quietly like rats they are.
Again, this is nothing new. There actually was something called software crisis of 1960s. Shitty programmers made costly errors, delivered faulty code with years long delay, causing immense damage in terms of wasted time of expensive mainframes. It was direct effect of the early thinking that software is a work for "calculators", akin to clerical and administrative jobs. All the really talented people focused on hardware. If you have a software company that thinks software is a job for low paid foreign labor, the results will be the same.
Forget Wolfenstein 3D, you have to play Alex Jones: NWO Wars.
