Right now there are four Mexican gents fixing my carport roof. I am amazed by the work ethic shown by these four men, they don’t chit chat, they don’t stand idle and smoke, they just work. My roof is going to get done today, weeks ahead of schedule by four men who barely speak any English. The jobs were there and they saw an opportunity and I hope they get paid well for their labors.
For the record I’m 60 with health issues and had to hire this job out, I’m not lazy, just grateful there are still hard working men in this country.
I am of Mexican decent. If these guys who are working on your roof are infact Illegal, 9 not being able to speak the language) is usually the tip off.
THIS is what you are doing..... THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER is getting stuck footing the bill for Social Services for these people, WE ARE paying their HOSPITALIZATION, We are paying for their Babies to be born.
We are paying to educate all of their Children.
You are a traitor to the American Taxpayer and the American Worker and YOU are a Problem.
PFFT. Yeah right....
Pray for yourself Lou.
God bless you sir for speaking the truth.
You hate your fellow countrymen. You are playing right into the Communists hands. I hate you. You POS.
(a.) You can always ask them, and they are usually pretty straightforward in telling you because they have pride in where they came from. [and] (b.) You can tell from their accent and their slang speaking Spanish, if you have an ear for it.
Yep. Yesterday I spoke with a friend whose husband ones and A/C company here in Florida so there is always work. He had set up an interview with a young man and made special arrangements to meet him there. Her husband had to leave a job site about an hour away so he could do the interview. Halfway there he gets a call from the potential interviewee.
“Um I don’t think I want to drive down to S today it’s kind of far. (It would have been about a 30 minute drive) can we just do this over the phone?” My friend’s husband told him no and reminded him that the job and training would take place there. So if he was not willing to go for the interview why would he believe he would show up at all? Guess who got crossed off the list of potential hires.
This guy is typical of what companies are facing when they need workers. And this after they eliminate those who don’t have clean records, driving and otherwise.
I do every day but there is plenty of room for you and yours no matter how you feel about me.
Mexicans are a people, and some consider themselves a new race, a unique blend of Spanish and Indian they are quite proud of. They are racist towards other Central Americans without their genetics. It's normal human nature, nothing libtards can do a thing about. Most "real" Mexicans have no interest in swimming the Rio Grande, nor watching any American libtard TV shows or movies. They live as if the collapsing USA doesn't exist.
I’ll pray for you.
How much was the pay? Your post is meaningless without that information.
Neither does the homeowner.
I make it a point to know that the people I’m hiring are legal.
I do not care what their ethnicity is as long as they are legal.
I praying to God to ignore prayers from traitors.
This ship had sailed
The battle now is to stop it before the entire third world moves here and Europe
People who don’t live around boom towns or large Ag endeavors don’t witness what the rest of us see
Except for a few sectors ...Mexicans and Central Americans do nearly all construction work and food and produce and of course landscape and so on. Shelbyville TN home to 100s of horse farms and nearby Warren and Cannon and Coffee counties arguably largest greenhouse and shrub and decorative tree farming in America is also worked mostly by the same. These places have become 25-30% Hispanic in a generation
Lower working class Americans unless they have to don’t want to work much anymore
Black or white
Both groups have games to run and make enough to live off that and govt assistance.
I grew up blacks did hard construction and whites did carpentry and electrical and steel and so on....whites still dominate electrical and plumbing.
Some of this is geographic..no question Latino construction influx is more sunbelt and coastal.
I go to Traverse city and few Mexicans although you do see them in the cherry business.
People said twenty years ago we would not deport a few million.
Now there are 20 million and the gates wide open steaming in from everywhere with future left wing voters who will be sold racial victimhood and vote for revenge and payoffs.
The irony is many Latinos do indeed work hard as F and send money home. Their culture has serious issues no question of that but if they can avoid falling for the race victim cult there is hope.
I don’t have answers but I can say that I can tell a lot of Freepers don’t see the magnitude of this.
If they all walked off here in Nashville ...man...the effect would be incredible ...and I just don’t see lazy fat whites and blacks who have grown accustomed to disability grift and Percocet scripts they sell and so on stepping up to plate.
Sorry to be a cold shower..there are no easy solutions to this
First thing is shut the border and deport who you can get away with politically but believe me there will still be many left
And I admit that is a quandary....millions have been here since the 80s...what about them?
My son worked with a Mexican man married to a country whites woman with kids and grandkids since 1979 in shelbyville who’s afraid to try for citizenship for fear of being deported back to Guadalajara
I’m not in favor of sending him home hell I’m fond of him and my son adores him. He’s mid 50s
It’s simply not as easy as usual meat and potatoes thinking here wishes for.
Nothing our favor will happen till 2024 ..and then the GOPe won’t help
He violated nothing. He hired a roofing contractor and these were that contractors employers.
There's something to what you said. Back in the late 90s to around 2006 I ran a small construction company. Around 2000 I started noticing a huge influx of Mexican and Central Americans on job sites. Also noticed how I began winning fewer and fewer bids. I was paying my guys $15-20 per hour. These "southerners" were working for $6-10. I just couldn't compete with that. Given that the vast majority of the "southerners" were in fact illegal aliens I would not hire them strictly because of ethical considerations. But most of the contractors I knew did, because they just could not compete otherwise.
I saw the handwriting on the wall, found another line of work and never looked back.
You know God sees the world as one world, all people are equal and each one his child, it’s men that create divisions. I’ll pray the God takes that hate and division away from your heart.
Try hiring a roofing contractor. First see who returns your call, then shows up on time. My experience with folks from Latin America is they will do a better, cleaner job than some tatted up meth head roofer with less hassle. Good for these folks finding a niche that our own lazy citizens won’t do.
Thank you
