That's some short term memory loss there biddy. You seem to have left all the stuff I was responding to on the table... And quoting yourself OOF. I am embarrassed on your behalf

It's like you don't remember saying any of this :

Some of them did evolve, looking a bit differently. I mean soup kitchens, places for the poor to sleep (it didn't look nice, I'm thinking late XIX and early XX centuries), sick leaves and vacations were sort of traditionally fine, work weeks, while being unregulated, weren't necessarily longer than what we have, cause unregulated just means individual arrangement, and so on. Life of a factory worker surely sucked, yes.

I would suggest reading a bit more into the labor practices of the 18th and 19th centuries and the labour movements of the 19th and 20th otherwise you really are gunna just keep playing pretend and talking out of your ass about this pastoral fantasy and this conversation is really gunna leave you behind.
