    Yup, there is/was a thing where stores wouldn’t let cashiers sit down because, according to customer service logic (and the opinions of a few extremely opinionated customers), it looks “lazy”.

      Lol, this is the dumbest thing I’ve heard in the long time (The story about sitting making the workers lazy, your comment explains it great, thanks!).

      Something is really wrong with that country, doing sadism to employees simply to not appear lazy.

      And even in bloody USSR such conveniences were mandated first, despite, eh, Soviet people not living very rich lives.
