Back in my very late teens to mid twenties I worked for my uncles at their construction company. I learned one major lesson during this time. How, if allowed men in power will seriously mistreat other men if there are no safe guards against it. To be honest most of this was verbal abuse, terrorizing, and crude jokes that would only be funny to the jokester. The physical was more unsafe working conditions that were allowed to happen. Yeah, I came off as "lazy" to my uncles only because they "fucking" pissed me off so of course they weren't going to get 100% out of me. At first I did my best, but was blamed for something I absolutely didn't do, and found myself being punished for it by means of sporadic abusive and humiliating techniques my uncles would use to demean an employee that were similar to boot camp training. So I stopped giving a shit, and just gave them what they wanted to see I suppose.
I never knew just how bad I was treated until I worked in another field under different people. I am grateful for one thing my uncles gave me my liberalism, and my disgust for Republicans. Give these bastards power, and abuse is all you are going to see. Period. They allowed me the first glimpse at just what kind of world these so called "conservative white males" wanted us to live in. A world where they can shit on everyone, and there's not a damn thing they can do about it.
