     Story of workers being abused
Cry Of The Workers
By Paul McCann

He was collecting some of the natural wild herbs that grew on the edge of the mountain . It was always a little dangerous as he had to scale down on a rope and pulley system that he had made to get to where the herbs grew . Those herbs could not grow anywhere else except for where they were . He had tried several times to grow them in his garden without any success so he resigned to collecting them where they grew naturally . After collecting all the herbs he could carry he returned home again and on the way he watered some of the small gardens he had started along the path . He had a man made pool that collected rainwater that he used to water the herb garden’s . As he was watering one of the travellers visited him .
“We have a mission for you Bucko “
The travellers said .
“Great , so what is it you want me to do ?”
Bucko asked .
“The government introduced a program called WTF which stands for Working Together Farming . How it works is labourers are brought from overseas on a twelve-month visa to work here on farms and in return they get paid as well as well as getting free accommodation . “
“That’s a great idea”.
“Well, it sounds great but the problem the workers are brought to farms in the country and some of the farmers are treating them as slaves . The workers are cruelly treated and not given proper food . The workers have no one to turn to and some of them not have been locked up in sheds like prisoners . “
“What had gone wrong with this program ?
“The government put the program in place but there is no one communicating or checking up on the workers once they have started work on the farms . We are going to show you some images of a farm and the shed where some people have been locked up . We need you to teleport there and administer your herbal medicines to those prisoners and reveal what is being done to the police and the community . “
After studying the images and the region where the farm was located Bucko closed his eyes and teleported there to begin his mission . No one saw him as arrived in the shed . There were six workers there leaning over a rope that was strung from one side of the shed to the other .Their feet had been tied up and they were also chained to each other in shackles but they were still alive . Bucko immediately administered medicines using a syringe and afterwards started to wash the dirt from their bodies using the hose that was in the shed , Once all the dirt was removed from their skin he started applying a herbal liquid to help the skin breath and heal and skin sores.
He fed them the liquid supplements he brought and once he was satisfied sure they were in a stable condition he left them in the shed for the police to find . Next he made his way to the farmhouse where the owner of the property lived .When he go there he found the owner lying drunk on the floor with family of family or friends asleep in front of the television . Unseen he walked around the house looking for any information that would be useful to the police , He hit the jackpot , there were some folders with a list names and addresses of those the farmer had sent his overseas workers to as slaves . The government would have to be informed about this .
Just to make sure the farmer and his family wouldn’t wake he sedated them with a heavy dose of his tranquilizing serum .
Then he rang the police and local media to inform them of what was happening.
It didn’t take long for them to arrive . They all descending on the farm within a half hour . The media were taking photos and police were also taking videos of the shed where the workers had been tied up .
The government authorities were informed by the police who had found all the paperwork left on the kitchen table . Bucko had left a note as well on the table , for the police informing them of the work he had done .
It read ,
“You’ll find six overseas workers in a shed beside the horse stables . I have fed them and cleaned them up . These poor people have been kept here awaiting shipment to another country as slaves . You will find all the details in the folders on the table . I can’t understand what makes people do the evil they do . I hope that their captors can be given similar treatment but that is up to you and the justice system “.
The note was signed ,
A traveller passing by .
The police were able to locate and assist the workers to make a full recover while they arrested the farmer and all the people involved on a string of chargers that would see they spend the rest of their live in prison ..Mainstream media flooded the news of the WTF prison scandal all over the world . The government scraped the WTF program and started a length process of interviewing all those workers who had arrived in the country under the WTF policy .
Bucko who had already teleported back to his mountain home never watched the television but he had some travellers who visited and they all congratulated him for the great job he had done helping to shame those farmers who had abused six overseas workers who arrived as part of the WFT program .
