midnight
No , they 're all grown up on land , in factories where they 've been in strikes , and they bring their factory views along into these floating factories . And they do n't like these stinking holes ! They do n't like their jobs , with no day and no night , only steel walls and electric light ! You hear a shout at midnight and you jump down into the stokehole and work like hell till four a. m. , when you crawl up all soaked in sweat and fall asleep till the next shout . And you do this , not as the sailor did for a captain he knew and called ` the old man , ' but for a corporation so big it has rules and regulations for you like what they have in the navy . You 're nothing but a number . Look here . ''
