If Zack is like the alienated workers interviewed in Terkel’s (1974) classic study, he would most likely describe himself as a "cog in a faceless machine of industry."

This also refers to the fact that there is no individuality involved here - all workers are the same, there is no difference between them, and they are treated as if they were just elements needed to complete a system, and not as real humans.
