This documentary followed the story of a group of food service workers who were able to gain justice. They had been treated very poorly by their manager and were tired of it. They were being paid less than minimum wage and received no payments for overtime. Working conditions were less than stellar as one machine desperately needed new parts but was instead allowed to remain potentially dangerous. The one main man portrayed in the film that is actually illustrated on the film poster is an immigrant from Mexico working solely to afford the materials and tuition for his daughter to attend and graduate college. The film itself was very well made as we were allowed special inside access into the very difficult and length process that these workers had to go through in order to get the contract they deserved. The sheer immense dedication and determination demonstrated by these workers over the course of many months without a steady, reliable source of income goes to show how much this cause meant to them. As a viewer, I couldn’t imagine the difficulty of their situation of trying to overcome the odds against them as low wage food service workers in New York City. I think their overjoyed success of receiving a great contract at the end was very well-deserved and demonstrative of what hard work and dedication can accomplish. I think the fact that low wage food service workers in the U.S. are at a huge disadvantage simply because of who they are is unacceptable in the 21st century. I also think there needs to be much stricter regulations and oversight on how these businesses treat their workers on a day to day basis, not just occasional checks. Managers should be held more accountable of the responsibilities that come with managerial positions, such as giving rightly calculated paychecks, paid overtime, and continual safe working conditions. I am honestly glad for the effort and time given by the people at the Laundry Workers Center who helped the workers achieve success in this film. I believe there should be more support organizations for labor rights both in large cities as NYC but also smaller cities across the U.S. that might be given more freedoms to abuse and maltreat workers simply by being in rural locations without sufficient oversight to perform regular quality checks. I hope this film reaches a large audience and engages people to think proactively and act on this issue.
