At my old job, the jobs for illegal Mexicans were they cleaned the floors (expected 6 hours a night) 7 days a week for 400$ a month. No breaks, no days off. If you had something to do you were required to find your replacement and they would want a cut of it.

I want you to explain in which reality that is not only enough to live on (because you could maybe do two of those contracts before running out of time as it was overnight only), but fucking worth it to even bother?
