Default OT, maybe - illegal immigrant roofing crews in Dallas Texas?

AngryOldWhiteGuy wrote the following:
Due to hail damage I may be getting my roof replaced (insurance) - a guy
came by with an estimate after looking at the roof - I asked him if everyone
that would be doing the work on my house was working here legally - he
laughed at me - "Americans won't do that kind of work . . ." - I don't want
to support the illegal immigration mess - is is possible to find a roofing
company here in the Dallas area that employs legal workers?




Most of the fruit and vegetables you eat are probably farmed by illegals.
Don't eat any of it unless you know who farmed it.
My next door neighbor had the entire roof of his split level 30 x 60
house torn off and reshingled in one day.
The shingles were delivered the day before, along with a big dumpster.
Early the next morning they showed up and got right to work.
There must have been 10 of them up there in the heat of summer.
They never broke for lunch either. All I heard all day was hammering,
Spanish, and salsa music.
I don't know if they were legal or not.
They were done at about 5 PM after cleaning all the debris from the ground.
