Hi, I'm a new worker at a city and I'm pro labour. I'm writing this post because I've seen a number of situations where city employees just haven't cared enough about their work, causing real harm to people. In one example, the city recieved multiple calls about a dangerous grate sticking out of a dog park, which were all ignored until a dog cut itself on it and was gruesomely injured. I can name 4 other examples similar to this, where worker apathy has led to harm or lack of progress, and I'm seeing a trend.
I'm not writing to accuse the anti-work or labour movement of apathy, but I want to know this community's thoughts on how to create a worker culture that cares about their jobs. Note that city workers don't make products but work on solving problems for citizens. To my understanding we pay all workers fairly and give them high benefits. What are your thoughts?
