[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1526794, member: 4362"] Don't want to downplay the danger of working in high temperatures but one needs to use common sense when working outdoors. This is something this article fails to mention since one would have to be a fool to try and pick Florida blueberries in the August heat when they aren't even in season. Their season is April and May. I can't help but wonder if this isn't the same journalist who wrote a lot of negative stuff about tomatoes bought by Publix and who inspired a bunch of millennials to protest and boycott Publix and demand that they force their growers to install air conditioning in their tomato patches so the workers wouldn't get hot.
