Mason For Hire
I was chatting with the workers yesterday and they asked me how many Rupees a load of bricks costs in America. I had to admit I couldn't even venture a guess. The next question was, 'How much for a mason's wages?''Hmm...maybe $10 --'
'$10?' they repeated with wide eyes.
' --an hour,' I finished. Their jaws dropped: they are paid $3.00 a day. When they finished laughing they quickly asked, 'You need a mason?'
