Can you hear the sound of apples being shoved up arses?

Quick news flash: we quit the apple picking yesterday. We got our paychecks in the morning and, despite having worked really really hard the past week, we made a measly $282 each. That's £108 in case you're interested. And that's for 40 hours work. So that's £2.70 per hour. For the hardest work I've ever done. Bugger that. They even had the cheek to take $45 off us for 'picker damage', despite having told us every single day our bins were perfect. I got very cross. Then very upset. I talked to the bosses and decided we could do without that kind of crap in our lives so told them - as nicely as I could - to shove it.

We'll let you know what we decide to do next!
