There were some farm workers on the radio a day or so ago. One son of a life long field working mother said he could hardly keep up. Pay was based on volume, not hourly. He said it was OK except for the midday and afternoon sun or when they picked in the rain. he said strawberries were tougher than other crops. Some, he could even stand up while picking.

They made a 100 bucks a day for at LEAST 8 hours. No mention about withholding, etc.

I've picked cotton, but not for a living. Nasty work. I've worked in a produce packing shed and that's far better than in the field. 10 hour days. But, even at 100 degrees, you're in the shade.

I'm pretty sure city folks won't work in the field.
