What I'm good at

What I noticed most about" In an Arizona Town, Main St is a Border Crossing" was that all the people there knew was work. Work was basically there life. They worked for long hours. These people were dedicated to working.

When the podcaster said" We are working form two in the morning until four in the afternoon". He was referring to the lady that wakes up early to serve the workers that wake up to work. I was thinking that a lot of us take having a job for granted but these people take these things serious. I think this is bravery because I don't think that I can work that early for a little money. That would be very tiring to me.

Another part that I found interesting to me was" You can see people all outside to walking, all wet, all dirty, coming late. Yeah because you're working 14-16 hours a day. This stood out for me because usually you have Americans working 9 to 5 or even not working at all but these people take going to work so serious. It goes to show that they really need the money they are getting.

I don't really agree with the fact that they have to work for that long because there are labor laws in America that don't permit people to work for that long. You can get in trouble with the law. That's to tell you that when it comes to starting a new life you are going to need all the supplies you can get and they don't really get benefits for working that long.

I really enjoyed listening to your podcast about Main St in Arizona and I hope that in the future I can hear another podcast from me.
