Excellent post that all should talk about to friends and foes in their neighborhoods.
Someone who had first hand knowledge told me the lettuce pickers and others (all illegals, naturally!) have huge fields to work in for hours at a time and portajohns at the fringes. They see them but say “That’s too far away” and just go and use their hands or leaves of lettuce (!!) afterward. Then some chain says recalling e coli contaminated vegetables in the following states....
Yet another reason to love those rascally illegals and their cheapskate bosses.

Well, I drive through the Salinas Valley quite often, and I can tell you that at least there, the “porta johns” are on wheels and they stay in the fields immediately adjacent to the crops being tended to. I don’t think the growers a) want anyone to crap on their produce and b) they want to make sure that “bathroom breaks” don’t cut into the productivity of their laborers. And those workers seem to be doing quite well for themselves if you can judge that by the age of the cars they drive to the fields. They are all new.
