I think it’s really sad how workers in this country get treated on a daily basis. I have countlessly witnessed people abusing domestic workers regardless of if they were the street cleaners or maids.
I’m gonna go on a rant, but I can’t wrap my head around people who have kids and then have their nanny’s take care of them? Why? I understand that some women may be working moms, my mom was, and we had a baby sister to make sure we didn’t kill ourselves while she was at work and clean, but other than that my mom was our mom. My mom took us to parks, my mom fed and cooked for us, my mom was the one who carried us as children, not the nanny. You don’t have kids so someone else can raise them, you have kids so you can give another human being a part of your soul, your life, your everything.
Anyway, not my point. These poor workers haven’t gotten paid for the past 4 months, work in poor working conditions, and get zero respect from more privileged individuals. Imagine what it’s like to be paid, what? like 20 KD a month, stuck in a room with 40 other people and have to be awake at the crack of dawn to pick up other people’s garbage just to send home a couple bills to try and keep your family alive.
It’s sad. Bend down and pick up something, then throw it on the floor again and pick it up. Do that a couple times and see how good your back feels. Someone the age of your father does this for a living. People are so cruel and disrespectful it’s horrible.
Do good, everyone is fighting their own battles just to survive everyday. Be thankful for everything you’ve got, there are millions of people around the world who would be thrilled to have a roof over their heads.
