The reason production folks keep the green room stocked is to keep people on location.

You can't have the drummer or key grip wandering off because they need a snack because they may be needed. That' the entire point of having crafts services.

While I am thankful that people are willing to fight fires, it's also true that the reason you have that stuff is to keep you on location just in case their is an emergency, not because of some deep care for people doing work.

That's bad. I feel for you. In a decent society fire departments would have the resources, personel, and good mind, not to overwork firefighters.

As for the parent making "blanket statement", I think making a totally irrelevant to the domain niche counter-example is slightly worse...
