hard work for little return

Published: Monday July 28,2008 by jonocynic9

I picked Raspberries during the summer holidays whilst I was at school many years ago. You had to work flat out to earn the equivalent of the minimum wage so it was very hard work. Nobody would do this sort of work because they would get more working in a burger bar for less effort.
Supermarket prices are so low that it makes sense to buy there rather than pick your own.
It's a shame for our fruit growers but this is the way of things these days.
