There are a whole lot of hispanics here that are
absolutely the best workers. As a shaky generalization,
it is usually the older hispanics. The younger generation
seems not to quite have the work ethic of their parents imo.

When you live in a city that is 65% hispanic, you get used
to color. But I will say when I went to Chicago and was
the only white boy on a bus, and the others were not hispanic,
that was very odd. I had never been in that situation.
FYI hooves is working in Mexico right now.
