Now the illegals have the skills, too. One of the jobs I had while in Florida was kosher supervisor on a dairy farm in the panhandle. The entire veterinary department aside from the doctor himself were illegals. And they knew how to care for the sick cows.
I also remember that there were some good ol’ boys on some of the framing crews when I was in that. They smoked reefer all day, but high as they were, they could put up units faster and better than the illegals, and got paid on a higher scale. Still, I would not want to work around potheads with power tools.
If you think there aren’t many illegal pot smokers you are kidding yourself. There is nothing special about their character, some are upstanding, some are dopers, some are drinkers, some are worse. Just like everyone else...
