It incenses me when I hear people say there are jobs Americans won't do, as if Americans are a bunch of spoiled brats who won't get their hands dirty and who would rather starve than work. No, as long as the employer pays a decent living wage, Americans will do the jobs.L.C.

I would do pretty much any legal thing they would pay me to do to feed my kids and keep a roof over their heads. I've been fortunate to always be able to find jobs that I liked better (and that paid better) than topless dancing or what have you, but if that was all I could get, you bet I'd do it!Maria Romanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03353248610235641414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313864272839280473.post-35647475289660903882011-01-08T09:09:49.616-08:002011-01-08T09:09:49.616-08:00Well, Joe, that's quite a question.

I've also worked standing for eight hours a day cutting sections out of oranges. That was another tough job. I've done cleaning work and didn't mind that at all. I think I'd draw the line at working in a slaughterhouse, but even then I don't know. If it keeps your family from starving, you do what you have to do.L.C.
