I dont feel that the people working at that place would agree with our spoiled American attitude. Yes, they work fast, mostly because they are doing a single task, and everything is close at hand. And those commercial machines are fast running.
But if it is a choice of having the dignity of a job, and getting paid, or sitting around doing nothing and living on government handouts,or starving, which would you choose?
Quilters are hard working, and productive, so surely can understand. Factory work is hard work, no denying. But our country was built on productivity, and it is only in recent years that it has become mainly a service oriented society. Farmers work a lot of hours, and for little pay. Would we say the work itself has no dignity attached to it, or that someone who works hard, particularly with their hands, has no self respect?
