Worker

A worker is a hoodlum attempting to gain status in the family.

The worker is gradually brought into a family through a series of jobs, starting with small crimes, then be present at bigger crimes, then being an mission, then performing the crime.

It is not an official position in a Mafia but more of an shoe and higher ranks usally tell them "Know your place. Accept your place. Be a shoe. We are the foot, we tell u what too do." So workers must do their order or else...

Workers usually perform hard or simple task despise a higher rank decides but do a lot of "thief work" like: stealing stolen goods into a truck and compliment truck driver, threatening a other family gangster to earn some money and then "maybe" get a higher rank, they are called "slaves" because they are "a shoe", family business dealings are not discussed with them, it's only once they have worked their way up to wise guy status that they are given the chance to make their bones.
