The collapse of adults can only be hysterical roar

The wonderful life is different in its own way, and the tragic life is mostly the same.

The film "sorry we missed you", through the story of Ricky's family, shows us how difficult life is for people at the bottom. People have no formal jobs in middle age, and they are burdened with debts. In order to support their family, they have to agree to a bunch of unreasonable people. working conditions. The righteous and rebellious son's continuous breeding of troubles. He was suspended from the school for a fight in the school, and he was stolen. Every incident happened. Ricky, the father, was present, but no one helped him to replace the class. If you want to be recorded once, you will have a hard time with no one to help you when you reach middle age.

His wife, Abby, is a care worker who works for the elderly and the disabled, and is also subject to the terms of the employment company's overlord. She treats her clients like family (she doesn't want to call them that). When a customer encounters trouble and needs to spend more time to deal with it, the company will not give her overtime, but complain that she is overtime. Outside of business hours, clients call her for help, and she's right there with them, knowing that everyone gets old. When he heard that the bruised-nose husband who had been beaten by the robbers received a call from the boss Marroni to ask for compensation, Abby was furious. Abby, who never swears, was full of rudeness. She can only express her anger through hysteria?

The owner of the express station, Maroney, is an intermediary who can make a profit without losing money. In the terms of the terms for Ricky, he euphemistically called the people who worked for him as "partners". In fact, he just wanted to shirk it. It's their responsibility to squeeze their labor force. Prepare the car by yourself, no contract, no basic salary and all benefits, no rest, no vacation, you can find it yourself, and you will be deducted 100 pounds for one day of leave, and 1,000 pounds for damage to the scanner gun. These overlord clauses are full of cannibalism without spitting bones. In the film, Ricky went to Maroney to ask for leave. Maroney said that the customer only cares about whether the courier has arrived and whether it is in good condition, not what the couriers have experienced on the road. Indeed, as online shopping aborigines, have we really thought about what happened to the courier guys who delivered them when you received the packages and opened them with joy?

The film also discusses the issue of education. During the process of watching it, I was really angry that my son Sebu was so ignorant, and his father worked so hard, but he caused trouble. When Ricky mistakenly thought that his son took his car keys, he could not work. When the money was deducted again, he slapped his son angrily, which was really relieved. But isn't the son worth affirming? In fact, when he took his friend to the station, he was worried that she would be hungry and offered to buy her something; knowing that his father was beaten and injured, his son took the initiative to go home and ask his father what he needed, but his kindness would not speak out. . When Ricky and his wife saw their son's doodle manual, Ricky said, "I don't know him so well!"

For the family's livelihood, Ricky, who can only keep one eye open and his hands covered with bandages, left a note for his wife early in the morning: "Dont be angry .I will be fine", son, wife and daughter Nothing stopped him, and at the end of the film, Ricky drove away staggeringly.
