W: I’m not surprised that factory workers want shorter hours. How would you like to be panels or turn screws hours after hours everyday.
M: I wouldn’t. I’d get bored. And I think only of my weekly wage packet.
W: So naturally, our workers are always on strike. They are bored and they want more money to spend in spare time.
M: No. What worries me is that there is far too many unnecessary disagreements between workers, trade unions and managements. We haven’t yet learned to work together-as a team.
W: Is that why so many of our industries are dying?
M: What do you mean so many of our industries and what do you mean by dying?
W: That’s the word you used the other day about coal mining and cotton textile industry.
M: Why do people get so upset about these industries? I suppose it’s because it used to be our pride and strength. Well, there aren’t any more as far as I’m concerned, the sooner people realize it, the better. Then all the money, labor and technical skills wasted on them could be put into the spending of other industries like electronics, motor cars, IT industry, and even some industry like tourism.
W: What about industries in other European countries? Haven’t they got the same sort of problems.
M: Yes, hut they had more practice at fighting for markets. That’s why I’m in favor of Britain being a member of Euro Zone. Industry inside of the Euro Zone are forced to take notice of their competitors.
W: Don’t you feel hopeless about the future?
M: Of course, I don’t. We are very invented and innovated people and we have plenty of skilled and professional workers. Besides, we still have reputation for honesty and fair dealing in business.
W: How nice to hear you boast, Charlie. The English think it’s in bad taste to boast, don’t they? When foreigners ask you how are things, and you answer "not bad". How they are to know "not bad" often means first class, thank you.
