He explains the constant overtime work by the fact that this is a righteous act and God will be pleased with this behavior of Christians (the employees are also Protestants). Workers are not outraged by this state of affairs and they continue to work overtime. Is the director doing the right things? Are employees doting the right things by agreeing to work overtime? Thanks!
