[QUOTE="JWBrahman, post: 1288259, member: 18439"] And people wonder why a Mexican can basically walk into America without knowing anybody or even speaking English and find a job almost immediately. This summer I tried to hire somebody to clear an old fence line and repair the fence. Offered $20/hour to all the sons of gals my age. Not a single one felt that was enough to be off his momma's couch and help her out by earning a little money. Hired an 18 year old kid a few years back. The boy is always hanging around the feed store looking for work. He spent half the day telling me how hard he works. Paid him too much and never saw that hard worker again. Buddy of mine owns an architectural firm in Albuquerque. Can't find anyone to stick around and finish a job. When these kids are put on the spot to actually produce they want a top salary and refer you to their graduate thesis. [/QUOTE]
