Abstract:
Malaki ang esensya ng mga fast food chain sa pagtakay sa
diskursong pangmanggagawa partikular sa mga service crew sa panahong
umaangkop ang lipunan sa mabilisang paggalaw at pagbabago ng mga
sitwasyon na direkta at di-direktang naididikta ng globalisasyon. Bagama’t
positibo ang ihinahayag na bunga nito, may mga dalubhasa pa rin sa
usaping sosyo-ekonomiko at kultural ang naniniwalang nagbubunsod rin
ito ng pagkabulag ng mga mamamayan sa mga esensyal na sitwasyong
panlipunan dahil sa pagkasilaw sa mga oportunidad na inihahain nito sa
buong daigdig lalo na sa mga umuunlad na bansa. Tinatalakay ng papel
ang iba’t ibang kalagayan ng mga pilíng fast food crew sa lipunan kaugnay
ng kanilang paghahanapbuhay sa espasyong apektado ng neoliberal na
globalisasyon – ang fast food.
Mula sa pakikipagkuwentuhan at pakikipanayam sa 17 na crew,
natuklasang may makahulugang kalagayang panlipunang kinahaharap ang
mga service crew na maiuugnay sa konsepto ng “bilis” bilang katangian
ng globalisasyon: (1) pangangailangang pinansyal para sa sarili at pamilya
ang pangunahing dahilan ng mga crew kung bakit sila nag-(se)service
crew; (2) kapuna-puna ang kabagalan ng regularisasyon dito; (3) gaya ng
ibang hanapbuhay, nakaaapekto sa sosyal na aspekto ng buhay ng mga
working student na crew ang mas matagal pa nilang oras na naigugugol
sa store; (4) may pangmamaliit sa ganitong klase ng hanapbuhay; (5) isyu hinggil sa minimum na pasahod sa all-around na trabaho; at (6) kapansinpansin ang pagtatalaga ng mga gawain ayon sa kasarian at edad ng mga
crew. Ang mga kalagayang ito ng mga Pilipinong crew – marahil ng iba
pang manggagawa sa mga bansang nasa Ikatlong Daigdig – ay relatibo sa
patuloy na pakikisangkot sa globalisasyon.
