Imagine “working” in space, finally unburdened by the restraints of labor law, workers rights, or those pesky wages. Pay no mind to the fact that all communication will be controlled by your enslaver, since no earth-bound authority will be able to save you anyways
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter, don’t you call me, 'cause I can’t go
I owe my soul to the company store

I’d eat my last sock for low gravity even if it meant taking a pay cut. Well, maybe not, depends on how much of a cut we’re talking. Try loading a ton a day on the neutron line when the grav compensator is on the fritz and you’ll be missing that cushy asteroid life.

*please note: on asteroid 786-gamma 16 tons is many times what it would be on Earth, due to the low gravity.
