Dear Diary,
Dad was really upset when he came home today. The plant where he works is old and poorly maintained. He made suggestions to improve the factory, but was ignored. I heard him telling Mom that he is tired of doing work and that he hates getting paid the same as other people at the plant who often don’t show up for work, or do very little once they arrive. He says they have no incentive to work. Mom reminded him that we have a lot to be thankful for. The government provides us with an apartment, guarantees that he will get retirement benefits, and free healthcare.
