Wait Until the Do-gooders Find Out

How long will it take the do-gooders to invoke child labor laws and put a stop to this abuse?

  1. My how things have changed. I can’t remember if you picked blueberries but I remember the moms in the neighborhood rounding up the slave labor (me and the other kids) hearding us into cars with no concern for our saftey (hence no seatbelt inforcment) dropping us off at the farm by 8 am and getting picked up at 5pm. 8 dollars per 100 pounds. Where were the do-gooders then?

  2. At least you could pick about 100 pounds per day when we did this while living on Lugers Rd.  It took me a week to pick 100 pounds of blueberries, but the $8 bucks was mine.  I think I was nine (9) years old, then.

    I bought my first suit from the J.C. Pennys catalog with those summer earnings.  I still have a photo of me in that suit somewhere, or Mum does.
