He had to work really long days, 15 hours, carrying bricks into a hot oven and then taking out the hot bricks with a small cart. He got hurt a lot from the hot bricks, and he has scars all over his body. If he worked too slow, a boss would hit him with a big stick. He had to eat food meant for animals, and at night he slept in a shed with bricks for a bed, and no covers. There were bosses and dogs watching them, so he couldn't leave.
