I take it you have never worked on a farm before? My ex-husband's step father and mother have a farm and I worked on it more than once. My ex-husband laughed at me when I told him I need to go back to the house. He just said pretend you are camping cause there is not time to stop work for an extended amount of time just to accommodate your needs. Before you think my ex-husband is an immigrant, he is Norwegian decent and his family has been in the country since the early 1800's and farming for many years. The point is, it wouldn't be unheard of to not use a port a potty in a field that has already been cut.

do no longer forget approximately countless amnesty for shepherds, goat herders and dairy workers. We have already got countless visas for seasonal ag workers - why won't be able to the farmers use them? they only ought to artwork a hundred days in 4 years to qualify and pay a $250 advantageous. i think of i replaced into an ag worker - i could like a reimbursement of each and every of the earnings tax i've got paid over the final 4 years. call your senator and whinge. I did - even inspite of the undeniable fact that w/ Dick Durbin and Obama, i comprehend it won't help. Backbreaking? I baled hay in intense college and faculty (back whilst they have been bales, and not rolls). I made sturdy funds doing it and replaced into in super shape. quite a few of my friends have taken over their dad and mom farms and be able to make it artwork the way their dad and mom did - w/ close by little ones for seasonal artwork. working type infants has a competent ingredient - the 2d those workers are legally in a position to artwork right here - they're going to head for the better paying jobs, leaving the farmers to stumble on new unlawful help. And the cycle will proceed.

I used to pick tomatoes as a teenager, that was in the very early 70's.
Back then the porta pottys we had, were far and few between. We would go to the ends of the row's and do our business. No washing of hands, etc., but no one "sprayed the veggies."
Sounds a bit gross, but you do what ya got to. Even so, all vegetables and fruits should be thoroughly washed, and not just for that reason. The chemicals and pesticides on the produce need to be removed, prior to eating.
As a side note I'm a white guy and I made more money working on the farm, than I did working for minimum wage. We were paid a base hourly wage and a per basket bonus, the more you picked, the more you made.
I had to quit that job, because the illegals were offering to do the whole thing, at almost half price. The owner wanted everyone to work for that reduced pay scale, I said "No" and quit. I could make the same money working at minimum wage and not get so dirty and tired.

yes i thought of that too when i read a report about human feces being mixed in green tea...i make sure i boil it.
i wash all my food and repackage it when i get home..it makes me feel better.
i do not grasp any of those little unwrapped mints that use to be at the cashier's stand at restaurants either for they found that urine was in them from ppl who do not wash their hands.
i also use a paper towel to turn of the faucet in public restrooms and also use it on the door handles.
not much we can do about it but it does give one the creeps.
i read if a person washes their hand frequently that would help eliminate or reduce the spread germs that cause the common cold.
some bacteria is beneficial but ...yuck.......

It definitely does. Why do you think there were so many recalls in the farm crop foods last year. Spinach, carrots. It makes you sick. I know for a fact that they will not walk to a port a potty. They will not even walk into their own house to use the bathroom. I used to live next door to hispanics. I would watch them in their backyard pee where they stood. What was so sickening was the fact that the kids would play in the yard, roll in the grass where they peed. It's disgusting. As they move into my town our lakes are now polluted with urine and feces. We have stopped using them but they are accustomed to water you can't drink so it makes no difference to them.

Having lived in the San Joaquin Valley for 20 years, yes I do. I drove past those fields everyday. Wash em before you eat them if you are that worried, or better yet.. fill up on fast food. What do you think the Chinese are doing? Ever think about that or are Mexicans your only target?

In my apartments invader babies play in the dirt known to be cat litter areas.
I have tried to tell them to watch out for those areas (due to fecal worms), but they look at me like I am crazy (which I am for even bothering, since I wouldn't wish parasites on anyone)
Sanitation is not a high priority when they don't even have to pay for their medical bills...

That's just a nasty way to talk about people who are working very hard to try to make a living for their families. I wonder how YOU get back at people you dislike?
