European Urbanization

Being a young male worker, I am always involved in many of the most dangerous jobs, like mining because I can fit into the tunnels unlike adults. I have to pull carts of coal up and down all day long, and honestly I don't even get paid that much so it's not a very good deal, but I am able to help keep my family fed. The conditions are horrible and I am always stuck with the worst jobs like sticking my hands through complicated machinery. I have a high risk of losing something off of me or even my life. This life is hard because it's so much better than being dirt poor, but it's almost not worth the risk.
