1. List eight concerns of American workers

Warning. THIS LIST IS NOT A WARM-UP, IT IS THE BADGE'S WORKING DOCUMENT. Requirement 2(b) names it by number and asks you to hand it to people at a union or employee organization and have them tell you which of your concerns matter most to them, and why. Eight items copied out of the examples this requirement itself supplies will survive being written down, and will not survive being put in front of a shop steward. Choose eight you actually thought about, put them in your own words, and give each a real example. KEEP IT AFTERWARDS TOO. Requirement 7 asks you to pick a labor issue of widespread interest and allows one known to you from your work on this badge, which is precisely this list plus whatever requirement 2 taught you. The badge names no number there, so no arrow is drawn, but a reader who kept the list reaches requirement 7 with the answer already chosen.
