Chapter 431 Chapter 431
?They knew that if they didn't do something about it quick that something bad was going to happen and that none of it was going to work out in their favor.
They decided to keep a tight lid on their briskness and work with what they had. They would have to ensure that they didn't lose any other workers and try to maintain the ones that they had.
The workers that were still within the Brown and Davis company were upset that the Brown and Davis set in place new policies.
They made it so that if there were any of the workers that were to decide that they wanted to leave they would be prosecuted as well as fines.
The workers didn't want to have to endure that. They knew that it wasn't fair but they wanted to retaliate they knew that it wasn't possible.
They knew about the power and the might that the Brown and the Davis families had and although they wanted a better opportunity and for them to have a better off life.
They knew that it wasn't worth them risking their own lives in order for them to achieve that they had to remain level headed but there were some of them the that could tell that the Brown and Davis families were falling apart.
They could start to tell that their businesses where crumbling around them and that if they didn't do anything about it that it would soon collapse before their very eyes.
They held onto the hope that it would all be over soon and once it was all over they would be able to leave once and for mall and there would be no oner that would be able to stop them.
The only reason that they stay behind right now and?the reason that they weren't able to fight back was because of fear.
They didn't know how the Brown and Davis family would react when they informed them that they wanted to leave and that wasn't something that they were willing to find out.
They tried to convince themselves that it was better for them to keep their heads down and not try to do anything irrational.
They knew that it wasn't going to end well for them if someone were to catch wind of what it was that they had planned.
Joyce tried to keep the news away from princess Candice. They didn't want her to know the fact that her plan was falling apart and that they had failed her.
They didn't want her tolerant hat things weren't going as she had anticipated and they knew that she would be greatly disappointed in them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt And so they wanted to continue to keep up the ruse that everything was alright.
They knew how princess Candice could be and the last thing that they wanted or desired was to get caught in the cross hairs of her anger and rage.
However they were unable to keep it a secret form her for a longtime.
Soon enough she was able to learn if the whispers going around.
She was angered to learn that a lot of their workers had left the company and they had decided to go and work for the Smiths instead of staying behind.
She had seen the ads and she couldn't help but scoff at how?ridiculous they were better pay for shorter hours.
She knew that there was something that wasn't adding up and the chances were that this was nothing more than a lie.
She knew that this was Zach's doing and he was intending to keep her workers off her hands.
She had thought that the tight leash that she had on them was something that would be enough to keep them all in their places, however she was wrong.
It was clear that it wasn't enough and they were choosing to leave.
In a sense she had to admit that she didn't completely blame them for wanting to leave.
The offer that Zach had given them although it sounded dystopian and too good to be true was a decent offer.
She realized that she had made an error other part. She had failed to see how the workers were of great value to her.
To her they were nothing more than disposable commodities that she could easily replace.
She had held on the hope that the people were poor and that they were in desperate need of work.
She had told herself that because of that there was no type of living or working conditions that she would put them in that they wouldn't be content with.
Because they didn't care about the quality of the work environment and the most important thing to them truly was to know that they were going to get paid.
However she realized now that that wasn't the case.
They had been on her side before and they had chosen to work in such harsh conditions because of their loyalty because there was no other option for them.
But now there were options that had been presented to them. One that would be for their full benefit and that would allow them to enjoy days off as well as full wages.
She hadn't considered them as humans before with emotions but rather she saw them, as commodities that she could dispose if when she saw it fit for her.
That was where she had gone wrong.
The fact that she hadn't been able to consider a work environment that would be of help to her workers and one that would allow them to want to work harder with her.
She let out a sigh as she shook her head. That wasn't true.
This was something that she could easily fix. She hadn't considered the workings of the employees before it now she knew that she needed to do so.
She knew that if she didn't put their own thoughts into consideration that she was only going to end up losing them and now was the time when she needed them more than ever.
The business was booming more than ever and that meant that she needed to be making more sugar at much higher rates.
She knew that or her to be able to do that she would need to get more employees or to have her employees work faster.
Her employees however were already working for her double and ripple shifts and she knew that there was no way for her to work them even further.
She would have to find a way to show the workers the new benefits of working for her and why they would wasn't to remain by her side rather than wanting to go and join the Smiths.
She was aware that threatening them wouldn't work this time especially when they seemed so intent.
She realized now that the truth was that she had never truly cared very much about the work conditions or the wellbeing of the staff.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt seemed that the only thing that she ever truly cared about was making money.
That was what was costing her so much now.
She sat in the office with her hands rested below her chin she tried to think of the best way for herself to greet them out of this situation.
She knew that I was going to be tricky and she would have to figure out a. way for her to get around it.
But then her gaze drifted back towards one of the ads that had been released by the Smiths.
She hated to admit it but it seemed as though they were onto something, they had a good grip of how they were set to run their business and she guessed that they were right.
Maybe she could take a page out of their book and she could try to improve some of the work conditions of her employees.
She hoped that they wouldn't take it as an opportunity for them to try to misuse the opportunitythat she had given them .
Because the truth was that she wasn't going to be giving them another.
She knew that she would have to call in Andrew and Joyce in order for them to help her with the implementation of her plan.
She asked one of the workers to call them over and she waited in her office gesturing for them to come in.
She was pulled out of her thoughts a while later when she heard the sound of a sharp knock on her door. She cleared her throat as she straightened her back and adjusted herself in her seat.
She watched quietly as they stopped for a few seconds before they pulled the door open and they cautiously made their way into the room.
They had weary looks on their faces as they looked towards her with a slight uncertainty. "You called for us princess." Andrew said to her hesitantly.
She hummed as she nodded her head at him in response before she gestured for them to take a seat.
They didn't know what she had called them in for but she never did unless it was to tell them what they were doing wrong or for her to give them more orders.
They had been working extra hard in order to keep the business running and to make sure that she was fully satisfied but it never seemed to be quite enough for her.
She always had a reason to complain about everything and it was draining for them to see that they were putting in all of the work.
