Dave and several worker representatives walked out of the dockyard, all dressed in brand-new work uniforms provided by Lance.
It had to be said that donning the neat work uniforms had wrought a tremendous change in everyone's demeanor.
These men hadn't received higher education, so they didn't know how to articulate this feeling, but in any case, they felt as though they had bound themselves into one rope, and they seemed to possess more strength!
Now, if any capitalist dared to face them, they could smash one with a single punch!
They walked with a swagger while smoking, no longer resembling their former selves.
If someone familiar with the history of labor unions saw this one scene, they would understand that these worker representatives were entering a unique phase, a phase of transformation.
When they emerged fully transformed from this phase, they would no longer be ordinary members of the working class, but would attain greater political prospects.
