They may be doing welfare and working under the table, as well.
We have a new house being built across the street.
Almost all of the roof sheeting was on as of last Friday.
All day Sunday I heard pounding from the work site and it was a white roofer, US citizen I presume, working on the roof underlayment.
We had 11” of snow in the next 24 hours. The roofer got a bit ahead of the weather.
He took the day off Monday (was snowing) and most of the day yesterday he was shoveling snow off of the sheeting...
That’s a work ethic.
We get the ‘hispanic’ roofers here in the summer but they don’t do the snow...
