I don't know what their living conditions are but when I worked at canning factory, we had as many as 6 or 8 guys to one room in a house owned by the canning company. I believe this is the nature of seasonal employment. I was watching a DVD on crab fishermen in the Bering Straits last night. This is not only considered the most dangerous job in the world but it is also very hard work with 18 hours shifts followed by 6 hours off and often very little time to eat during the day. The only thing attractive about this kind of seasonal work is that one can earn up to $50,000 for two months worth of work.ultimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624967903736347171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-17111975867171619592008-12-14T11:01:00.000-06:002008-12-14T11:01:00.000-06:00I continue to wonder what continued damage our lam...I continue to wonder what continued damage our lame duck President will do while he is still in office. <BR/><BR/>Consider the Wall St. Bailout.
