Work would then resume around 2 p.m. and continue until at least 7 p.m. North Koreans work late. There is no such thing as being paid by the hour in North Korea. Almost all jobs are salaried government positions since the country runs on a socialist system. Our foreign liaison at the hospital confessed to us that he would work late most nights, even as late as 11 p.m.
I don't like the sound of working late with only a set pay. Not an hourly pay. Sounds like that is exploitation to me. Hourly pay makes sure you get what you work for. Salary pay means no matter how much you work you will only have that. Making them work late everyday is wrong.
