The case of insulting Chinese people which we just talked about is the most common example. Restaurant workers, cooks, handy men, dishwashers, or waiters have to work heavily for twelve or thirteen hours each day. Long hours of laboring like this is not something most people could stand. What is more, this involves a whole lot of detailed work in the restaurant. The twelve to thirteen hours of work is passed in running around doing minor things, so that we don't even have time to sit down for a cup of tea or a meal.
Waiters rush back and forth to the kitchen, in between customers.
Kitchen workers keep preparing food, non-stop according to the announcement of orders by waiters for three to four hours straight. After the rush hours are over, we are faced with all kinds of odd jobs that are left behind till closing time, when we can really get relieved. But by then we are all exhausted and ready to hit the sack. Late at night, we drag our lonely and heavy steps home. Many times we'll find it hard to sleep even lying in bed after being overworked.
