Your job

[Galt]

I used to do blue collar shit. I used to paint houses; when I I was a child. I painted for 7 years. I was not union, and I negotiated my own salary. I was paid more than some, less than others. I used the money to help put my way through college so I could better my intellect and move up from manual labor where anyone could do my job. I learned a measurable skill where I could create a livelyhood with my brain.

I did this so I wouldn't have to rely on a union, or anyone else to decide wether or not I could put food on my table.

I would never last there because I wouldn't allow myself to be in that situation.
