Christmas Elves on Strike!We’re on strike. That’s it. We are tired of working day after day with no breaks and no holidays. We are fed up with working for zero wages. We are sick of the cramped, confined sleeping and working quarters at the workshop. And most of all, we refuse to wear these silly, uncomfortable elf suits anymore. We, the Union of Workshop Elves, refuse to make any more toys until the following demands are met:
- We want to earn a salary + 4 bonus pays per year + 2 % raise every year.
- We want to work part time.
- We need a work timetable.
- We demand a spacious workshop and bigger beds to sleep in.
- We want medical and dental insurance for us and our families.
- We need two months’ holiday + free weekends + a coffee break.
- We demand housing.
- We want promotion in our jobs after five years.
- We want a discount on the toys that we make.
- We’d like to have nicer and more comfortable uniforms and a fast car to deliver the toys faster than now.
Unless these demands are met, children won’t get any presents for Christmas this year, and we’ll consider legal steps.
