Don't Buy the Grapes!
By Erin Horner |
|
1 It was the same thing hour after hour: pick more grapes, move to the next vine, pick more grapes. The blazing sun was beating down on my already aching back; its heat reminded me that a cold drink of water, as refreshing as it would be, was out of reach. My fellow farm workers and I were only making one dollar per hour. The wage was not even enough to support my growing family. If I stopped to get even a small sip of water, the growers would charge me for each drink. So I picked on, hour after hour, vine after vine. |
