1. Mirabella, Lorraine. (2013 Oct 24) BWI restaurant workers file lawsuit over wages. The Baltimore Sun http://www.baltimoresun.com/business/bs-bz-airport-workers-lawsuit-20131024,0,6558363.story
2. Category of problem- workers
3. Level of problem- local
4. The article concerns: Workers at the Baltimore Airport are filing a lawsuit against their employer for not fully compensating them.
5. How does this affect individuals? It is clear that the lawsuit is being filed for a illegal act against the employer not fully compensating their employees, so people aren't getting paid.
6. My opinion: I don;t know how this issue hasn't been served sooner. Why are employees just now standing up and taking action against this issue? As far at the lawsuit goes, these employees have every right to take action against the Airport for not compensating them. In my own personal opinion, I have outgrown the employee mindset of believing I should work for someone else my whole life. I believe in taking control of your own life, being your own boss, creating your own income, and etc. Pretty much summing the life up of an entrepreneur. Upon these employees lawsuit taking place, they should consider looking into other opportunities out there and not take the chance of being screwed over by a workplace. Many people settle for an average life and don't know what else to do besides work a job and work for someone else which in return is making someone elses dreams come true. What happened to dreaming big and aspiring to be something great in life? I feel as if people get shut down for actually believing in doing something different from the social norm, which now days is saying to go to college and get a degree and work for the rest of your life. That sounds no fun.
