A Day Laborer

A day laborer is he who does heavy manual labor in various fields. He is quite known to all. He is to be healthy, strong and stout. He lives with his family in a slum, he gets up early in the morning and goes out in search of work. He works hard from hard from dawn to dusk for his employer and gets his wages at evening. Then he goes to market, buys his daily necessaries and returns to his slum. He is always dependent on his employer. When he gets more work, he earns more and then he and the members of his family eat with their heart’s content. Sometimes he and his family go without food when he can’t manage work. However he is in great demand in harvesting season. The life of a day laborer is full of sorrows and sufferings. He can hardly enjoy peace and happiness. In all weathers-good and bad he works hard all day long and earns his livelihood by the sweat of his brow. He does not know what is rest. Though the service of a day laborer is great importance, he is very much neglected. He is ill paid and can hardly make both ends. He is not hold in due respect. So we should have soft feeling for him so that he can lead a decent life with dignity.
