Funny how now the local Subway has TFWs I can order A on B bread with C cheese toasted and she can remember all that.
Whereas the local kids could remember 2 things at best, usually 1 at a time and too often none.
At $17 hr, the choice wouldn't be hard if I was the Boss.

The same kids that were given a screen as their replacement brain. Its no wonder why they can't remember a short list on their own.

TFWs are cheaper anyhow. You can billet 8 to a bedroom too. Saves expensive housing.

Couldn't agree more. My 16 year old step son make me want to put a fist thru the screen sometimes with his entitlement of 'fairness' while not going out and getting a job. Only last week did he get his resume after months of hounding him to get off his ass.

Life is rough, wear a helmet cupcake. Rights are earned in blood and deeds not requested while bleating how unfair the world is.

Actually you can't pay TFWs less, minimum wage laws still apply.
The 6 that all live in one mobile up the road have to pony up rent among themselves and they think it's a bargain. Making more per hour than they did at home in a day.
Kid across the street is a different story 15 and works 2 jobs. Told her folks not to buy here a mobile cuz she'll have enough to buy herself a house by the time she's old enough to move out.

Why pay a living wage when you could get near slave labour for cheap?
