You might not be aware of this, but in many lines of work (apart from computer science) it is not all that easy to get a job. For many parents, they will have to choose between not spending time with their children and starving. Yes, they will choose to work on Sundays and not starve. I personally know many families who would be put in such positions just because a bunch of retaliers want to make more money.
