Childhood of Finnick Odair
I was born with only a father, my father is Charles Odair, beautiful name, mom's name is Elizabeth, and she died of childbirth, or at least that was what I was told. Our family lives a fisherman's life, when my mom is alive, we had a better economy. This is because mom collected wild berries and we had two sources of income, but after my mom died, we only have one source of income, dad fishing. This causes a huge setback for our family, because early in my life, dad told me about the four-social level.
The fourth one is home-workers. I like to refer to them as slaves because they sort of acts like them, however, dad's really strict about it, and forbids me to do that, saying it's rude. I understand now because it is indeed rude.
The third social status is fisherman, they aren't highly ranked because they refer to higher ranked people who know nothing but how to catch fish. However, we know other things, generally we sell our fish to second rank.
The second rank is workers in fish factories, they generally are quite rich and buy fresh fish from us. However, they are annoying and care about a lot of small problems, like fish not looking good. Sometimes they buy fish from us to give to the factory. The Cresta family is one of them.
The first rank are factory owners, I don't know much about them because we are lower ranked and they usually live in the Capitol. They are super rich.
Push family is a family who is able to move into higher status. Fourth rank moving to third rank have an obvious sign because they are actually calculating their debts. Most fourth workers don't calculate their debts, it's simply too great. Third rank moving to second rank is majorly shown by them selling fish directly to the factory. Second rank moving to first rank is shown by them buying spare plots of lands. First rank promoted to governor's position which is workers of the Capitol, they have powers and can put you in jail, so this is why dad told me not to mess with them.
