If you were an illegal alien and entered the US from Mexico and couldn't speak much english...what would be your first job?

Also...

If you are an illegal alien...what was YOUR first job here in the US.


(note: please stick to the topic. I don't want this to turn into an immigration debate or whether or not illegals or undocumented workers should or shouldn't be here.)

I would provide daycare for other illegal immigrants' children. I would learn English and then start teaching Spanish so that the American culture is assimilated into Mexican existence. I would support political rallies to make it mandatory for all teachers to learn Spanish so that they can do a proper job of teaching diversity instead of the c.rap they claim is effective teaching practice. I would push for all states to provide communications in Spanish and make Spanish the official language.

I would do what ever I could to make a few dollars. I mean after all I could only make 3 dollars and still make 5 times more than what I was making in Mexico

Dishwasher, construction, landscape, janitorial work, meat packing plant, seamstress, maid, nanny or unlicensed in-home childcare... Something that didn't require a lot of talking/writing in english or that I could do that would service others in my community who perhaps were dealing with the same circumstances...

It would be a Labor intensive job because that all that is available with the limited skills. Eventally I guess I would move up and find a better job.

i wouldnt come here if i didnt have a job lined up so it would probably be under a family friend or something and alot of mexicans work in the feilds or as janitors or something so i would probably start there until i got my green card and learned good english

Construction. That way the majority of my co-workers speak the same language.

I would probably find a job that didn't require a lot of speaking, it will probably be some sort of labour work like farm, factory, etc.

i'd get a job as a yahoo answers moderator since they obviously have no command of the english language.
