<br/><br/> "It's 7:30 a.m. on a Monday morning. Seventy men--white, black, Mexican--sit in the four areas of the Fort Worth (Texas) Day Labor Center, waiting for contractors, home owners, and apartment managers to begin coming in looking for day workers. Each of the men have a number. Those with the good numbers, numbers 1 through 30, sit on folding metal chairs in the dreary, dull, white front room where the contractors enter. The rest of the men, with little chance of getting out that day, sit in a large room with cafeteria tables, two televisions, a magazine stand, and a computer, the anteroom, where the 10-cent coffee is sold, or a fenced-in outer area set aside for smokers." (WORLD & I) The article profiles a Day Labor Center in Fort Worth, Texas, discussing many of the hardships that workers face trying to find employment on a day by day basis.
