      This specific email from Brenda is most likely a fictional version of something that does actually happen fairly regularly. There are laws in many countries and even in some US states mandating breaks because of companies or leadership or HR encouraging them to never stop working.

        The issue isn’t the ‘never stop working’ part, that sucks but isn’t illegal. It’s the ‘stop paying but don’t stop working’ part that’s a problem.
