Like unloading railroad boxcars. It’s unbelievably hot inside those things. Hot. Dirty. The boxes are heavy. I didn’t know I wasn’t willing to do that work, because I didn’t have Dubya around to tell me only a Mexican would be willing to do it.

I’ve worked in shops grinding flash off of aluminium transmission housings, picked rocks, baled hay and just about every other type of farm work. Industrial painting, scrap yard work. I’ve worked in both lumberyards and sawmills. Metal plating, press operation, I made fiberglass truck caps and lids (that was an extra special treat)

Gee...in my world its called, "doing what you have to do to support yourself". And if I had to, I'd plant and pick crops as well...whatever it took, to keep a roof over my head and food in the fridge.

When the hell did people become too good for manual labor?
