Gia shared this pic from where farm workers are harvesting carrots in Santa Maria: We pull and bunch carrots. At the end of the day our hands ache from the repetitive motion. I only earn minimum wage, but I am grateful to be in a crew that has a year-round work. #WeFeedYou - ThreadSky

God bless you!

Thank you Maria!! I’m sorry you make so little money! You deserve so much more for the hard work involved in harvesting carrots! I peeled 10 fresh carrots tonight and they could have been from your hands. 💙

Send her some money. Prayers.

Thank you so much for your labors. Carrots are big in the meal rotation in our house.

God bless all of them. Praying for them, especially during these very difficult times 🙏❤️

Gracias, Gia, por este informe. Agacharse, tirar y agarrar zanahorias todo el día es un trabajo duro, así que espero que tengas cuidado. (Thanks, Gia, for this report. Bending over, pulling and grabbing carrots all day is hard work, so I hope you're careful. #TheyFeedUs)

Repetitive motion leads to injuries

Thank you! 😊

Thank you to these folks for doing such important work. At the same time, it seems to me that if there was the will, there is a way that the work could be made less burdensome for the humans that do it.

Do farm workers support a Labor Party, universal healthcare, housing etc?

Minimum wage for backbreaking labour

normanmb.bsky.social•37 days ago

How about more than minimum wage? I have always wondered why the hardest work gets the least pay!

Yet America is okay with some guy making over nine hundred MILLION dollars to play a GAME!

Thank you

Immigrants are required to take a test to receive citizenship. Current American citizens should be required to take a test to determine if they should be allowed to remain a citizen. The first questions should be about American political structure, the Constitution/Bill of Rights, and basic English.

normanmb.bsky.social•37 days ago

GREAT idea!!!! Prayers.

lyan-cat.bsky.social•36 days ago

Absolutely not.

Just because immigrants are unfairly treated, doesn't mean inflicting asinine treatment on everyone is the solution.

Can you imagine Trump and his yahoos applying this concept to the American people? Gives me the creeping shudders.

Vote suppression should never be on the table.
