Heroic Factory Workers Finally Clock Out After 28-Day Shift of Producing Vital Health Care Materials
American laborers sacrificing to work a nearly month-long shift were finally able to clock out Monday.
Braskem America in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, has been in operation round-the-clock for at least 28 days, manufacturing raw materials needed for the production of
N95 masks, hospital gowns and sanitary wipes put in short supply by the ongoing pandemic.
Of course, a manufacturing effort of that magnitude requires manpower and, according to
WPVI-TV, 40 Braskem staff members have shouldered the responsibility, volunteering to live at the facility for four weeks straight in order to keep production moving.
Split into two teams, the laborers traded off working 12-hour shifts eating, sleeping and breaking together on-site.
Their only connections to the outside world were television news broadcasts and drive-by visits from family and friends.

Theres been a glow in everyones eyes, Boyce said.
The effort and
sacrifice were well-invested, however, with the team of laborers unanimously agreeing the 28-day shift had been a worthwhile act of service.
Were truly honored to be able to give back and support people we will never meet in some way, Boyce said.
All the first responders, all the people on the frontlines, we thank you, he added.
Thats what makes our job easy to do.
i BET NONE OF THESE WORKERS HAVE A $24,000.00 FREEZER STOCKED WITH GOURMET ICE CREAM!
