Greetings,
Recently there has been talk of forming a union in the textile, to protect the workers, better working conditions, and lower working hours. The leaders of this union say that we are more powerful in numbers, and if we all band together under one cause, we can make our factory experience much better. On the surface, the thought of forming a union sounds very good, and sounds like it could work, but if you look deeper into what the union is, you start to realize that the union has a very slim chance that it will work. The upper class owners of the factory will simply fire all of the rebelling workers and replace them with new ones if we go on a strike. And the government wouldn't be likely to notice a small rebellion like one in our factory, so they will be unlikely to help us. I think that if I want to keep my job, I should just stay put, doing what I am doing now and not get into any risky business.
Wish me luck,
James Miller
