Being unable to realize the goods of labour
Текст Раскадровки
- Get back to work, you guys are not working fast enough, you should easily be able to finish this in time. You will not get paid unless you complete this task.
- But boss, its raining right now, I do want to get paid but we do not think it is safe to go up on the ladder in the rain.
- I agree, it is too dangerous.
- Do you guys want to get paid? Its only a little bit of rain, it will be safe.
- Hmm Joe, it seems to me that we cannot realize the goods of our work doing window cleaning for this company, in order to receive payment we are forced to work in dangerous conditions.
- I agree... but how are we going to find work? We need the money.
- I have an idea! In order to realize the goods of work and eliminate the bad's why don't we work for ourselves as window cleaners?
- That is a good idea. If we work for ourselves we control our payment, and can choose work that will not risk our health or put us in dangerous positions!
- Joe and his coworker realized that in window cleaning for this company, they were experiencing many of the "bads" of work that Gheaus and Herzog reference in The Goods Of Work. By working for themselves as window cleaners, Joe and his coworker will be able to choose what work to them is too dangerous and avoid being coerced by a hierarchal figure. Moreover, window cleaning is a repetitive job, one where workers do not have the ability to advance their skill set. By working for themselves, Joe and his coworker now have the ability to seek excellence as they now have to market their own work, get supplies, and face any of the complaints from the clients. The added responsibility allows Joe and his coworker to achieve excellence as by working for themselves they are taking on much greater responsibility, while also eliminating the danger, and hierarchal relationship with their boss.CitationsL. Herzog, A. Gheaus, The goods of work (other than money) Journal of Social Philosophy, 2018.
