Author Description

Excerpt from Revised American Candy Maker Before going forward in this book, I would like to have a short talk with the workmen, and perhaps I can help them understand their position toward their employer in a more friendly way. In many years at work as workman, foreman and as employer or proprietor, I have found that there is too much unnecessary friction with one another. I have found that workmen feel that they are not fairly treated, and that they have been imposed upon in many ways. I once knew a number of workmen in one shop who, when one of their number was given a job outside of his regular work, would hold a consultation, and would come to the conclusion that there was some plot back of the order, as there was one special person ordered to do the work; this same feeling would be just as strong when the next order would choose another of their number. This strong suspicious feeling, I know, was all unnecessary. Too often we hear the remark. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
