With Congress getting tougher on illegal's, I thought it might be helpful to provide you good folks some tips that might keep you out of trouble with Sambo. Not saying these have all happened to me - but most have. Please add to the list so we can all be more compliant in 2007.
Your help might be illegal if…….
They don't speak English.
They do not work smart but do work hard.
They came from your local federally funded migrant worker assistance office – with high recommendations.
They spend twenty minutes pulling wire from the harrow only to throw it back in the field.
They keep their foot on the clutch while they drive tractors.
The IRS sends you notice stating there social security number doesn't match their name and request that you fill out a bunch of forms and submit the social security tax each time the fellow is paid.
They have a Florida drivers license but a local address – and you don't live in Florida.
They put a spent propane tank in the burn pile.
They run if your buddy from the sheriff's office pulls up.
Some don't show up for work because they are out sick from eating barbeque cooked over telephone poles.
They burn feed bags in the dry grass rather than in the plowed field hence burning your barn down – and don't seem the least bit concerned.
They will run out of gas, nails, boards, oil, paint or whatever before informing you they are running short and will normally tell you just as you return from the place you could have easily gotten the stuff.
With the thermostat in the red, they will sit and wait for someone to tell them what to do.
They know how to do everything – even if they don't and don't mind making a mess out of the job until you figure out their limitations.
After cutting a finger off, you find them back at work with cotton and duct tape around the finger instead of at the lawyer's office.
They change the oil in their vehicles once a year – whether it needs it or not – and will extend the same care to your equipment if allowed.
They are dating an obese white woman.
If married, they don't like you to kid around about Sancho.
