   I think of it more as roofers out of work.   
      
   Our new roof was put on by the same outfit that put the previous   
   one on.   Only this time, nobody on the crew spoke English except   
   for one guy who was the spokesman - who had a few words.   
      
   8-10 people worked on that job.   All I could think of was that   
   the 8-10 local guys that put on the previous roof are now out of   
   work and the 8-10 guys that did the latest one are going back to   
   Mexico after their work visas expire.
