The trouble with hired help is
that they want bigger wages than
any man can afford to pay and
when they get a job they see how
little they can do and not get fired.
The sentiment Of the hired hand
nowadays is not to let the man he
works for make anything on his
labor. II he thinks his employer
is making anything, he demands
more pay. w. +. Swatman.
This is true only where the
hired man takes no interest in his
work. The remedy is obvious.
