Don't get done ? Somehow diapers were changed, dishes were bussed and lettuce was picked before illegals.
Some jobs are not worth that much ? Illegal immigration is corrupt employers forcing down the cost of non to semi skilled labor by dumping on the taxpayer the cost of social services. Do you think Mara Salvatrucha and the rampant lawlessness that is turning border regions into hell is some kind of bargain we can afford for a penny less a pound for lettuce ?
Putting those workers on the books eliminates some of that.

Having a guest worker program would allow at least some kind of "vetting" process, that could, if used well (big caveat here) reduce these problems.
Mostly by legal immigrants. Mexicans, Chinese and Japanese mostly in the West at least, Puerto Ricans in East, who by virtue of living in a US governed Commonwealth, are citizens. Or by the participants in earlier guest worker programs.
