As we saw the other day, one of John's 'solutions' to the imaginary problem of Michael being both insufficiently grateful to be bossed around by a purblind old fool and having a life of non-existent ease was to convince some idiot with a hot-dog cart to put the boy to work. It seemed to not matter to John that Mike felt very self-conscious about being in a monkey-suit and hairnet selling weiners. If anything, Michael's discomfort seemed to be a selling-point owing to John's willful blindness as to who Mike is. As I've said before, John needed to see Mike as being a defiant parasite who needed to be humbled and taught the value of things in order to protect himself from looking in the mirror and seeing a self-absorbed and callous hypocrite and greedy, immature imbecile.
