Because Darth Vader is so threatening, and if anybody messes up one little thing, he freaking chokes them to death, right? Imagine that's your employer. You've got to go to work every day, you've got to get up, you've got to have your coffee, and then you've got to go to work all day for somebody who could just kill you if you make one mistake.
