Reply #22: Are you willing to pick fruit at two dollars a basket?

[Toots]

You can pick a basket in about twenty minutes if you hustle. That relates to about six dollars an hour. You will do that very physical labor for that amount of money. If so I am positive there is a position open for you immediately. Six dollars an hour is the equivalent to eighteen dollars an hour in Mexico. They send half home and pool their resources to survive. You can have that job just as quickly as you can get there. The farmers are in constant need of help. You can easily join the circuit. I am betting that you wouldn't really want to do the job. Most Americans think such hard labor for such poor wages is beneath them. Americans have an extremely high opinion of themselves and I really don't understand why..
