The Cleaning Lady by Phillip A. Farruggio, dissidentvoice
She's got a husband and a baby boy. The husband works too; the baby laughs and cries a lot. Sometimes her husband cries about not having health insurance. He's a craftsman, skilled enough to pull in the same as his wife; not skilled enough to get his boss to pay for health insurance for the crew. Not too many craftsman jobs out there now, so his bargaining power is reduced to a whimper. Like most Florida businesses, its a non-union shop, so the benefits are one week a year paid vacation, and a few sick days and holidays, and that's it.------------------------------------------- posted 6:43 AM :: reference link ::
