The fruit comes on different types of conveyor belts. Grading belts rotate the fruit as they go. This strains your eyes out. Also it is very easy to get dizzy or pass out coupled with that heat. Workers are constantly moving their arms whether they grade or pack fruit or stamp boxes.
Workers get sick on the line very often.
One day six women got sick and had to go home. I got sick three times out of the two and a half months that I worked there. It is bad to get sick for then you have to go home early and you don't get paid for the time you miss. The time-clocks they have are army clocks with 100 minutes to an hour. They pay your last hour of the day by the quarter which means that if you work 25 min. on a regular clock they pay you for 15 min.
