Hell back in HS we got first shot at detasseling corn and deroguing beans. I lasted a day, some boys lasted a few. By the time they brought in the mexicans a week later, there would be maybe 2 of the scariest foodball players left, and they did make decent money by the end of their little stint.
Your average person is going to get heatstroke from this.
Seen it. Down south, knew a guy who did any kind of odd job. Work hard, play hard, antiracist. Lasted like two days picking strawberries.
Honestly the job could be less hard. The employee assult issues are really bad, and only a couple little nonprofts are trying to address it. Mostly supply chain advocacy, with migratory/poc employees in leadership.
