LOL Do you remember when Freepers sent resumes to McCain for that lettuce comment? That was years ago and I’m still waiting to hear from him.
I sure do.
$100k to pick frickin lettuce?
Moron thinks it’s hot sweaty work in the desert.
grows best with moderate daytime temperatures (73oF) and cool nights (45oF).
In fact, most lettuce (more than 70%) is grown in the Salinas Valley of California.
The weather is cool and if you look at the pictures of the linked article, you will see the pickers in long sleeve shirts and jeans.
The Salinas area rarely sees temps above 75 degrees.
My kind of weather and I should know.
I’m in Gilroy to the north and frequently travel to Salinas and the area surrounding.
I love cold weather and for $100k picking lettuce would be a fine job and no sweat...
