no doubt all work is dignified when no one is exploited. unfulfilling work that doesn't satisfy the worker can be a prison sentence. I have a first generation friend Marty. soon after his family settled in Brooklyn, coming from Poland, his father landed his first job. his dad was an" egg candler". it was his job to hold eggs up to a lit candle to count how many yolks the eggs contained.he also checked to see if any of the eggs were fertilized, yolks were in good form or bloodied. when I met Marty's father, I extended my hand to shake his hand, his fingers were positioned as if they were holding something although they were empty. Marty caught my glance and whispered, "thousands and thousands and thousands were counted and yet, he complains about nothing".
