Damned right! And lets not assume that it's only Americans who think this way.
A recent documentary on the BBC was going up to people on the unemplyment register and saying to them -
"How do you fancy working in a job for ten pounds an hour?"
The answer was an overwhelming "Yes".
then they found out that it was agricultural work. Fruit picking.
Puff and sweat involved. many applicants turned it down. The Average |Brit does not want that kinda work. Even for ten quid an hour.
