Letter to Pharaoh

Dear Pharaoh Kufu,

I have been one of your most loyal servants for over 15 years and I have been elected to write to you by my fellow workers. All of your workers agree that you should change our current working conditions, as it would be vital to help us complete you pyramids.

Firstly, it is essential that we should have short breaks. This is necessary because working 16 hours in the blistering heat and being dehydrated with no shade or water, means we cannot work, in addition, it is vital of you support us it is essential that we need breaks, because without them we will not be able to complete your pyramids, would you want to work in the blistering heat building your pyramids?

Furthermore, we would like to have medical care as in if we get hurt, surely someone like you would obviously understand. My friend was badly injured over a heavy and big rock and I wasn’t able to help him, if we have medical care all your salves will be fit, overall being slow and not completing your pyramid. It is ridiculous that everyday slaves die, just because we have no medical care.

In conclusion, please take my points into account. If you allow me and your workers to have medical care, short breaks, and I will insure you will do the right thing, therefore your pyramid will be completed quicker. How many more slaves have to die before you take action?

You’re sincerely from all your workers
