Part 1

  This summary explains about the men and women from Mexico, Central America, and South East Asia that migrated from there homelands to seek oppertunity. They searched for job's and many of these people turned to meat packing jobs. They called this factory the Slaughter House giving the job a good empression on what  conditions the job offered. The workers where payed  $9.25 cents per hour which is right above poverty wages. This job had its affects as you can see it described that average worker quit, or was fired every three months. So it explains the harsh conditions that these immigrants faced. I could imagine how many of these immagrants felt over worked, tired but was left with no choice but to work. I worked at mcdonalds and thought that was tough labor, these workers often where  injured, sick,or even faced amputations for minimum wage jobs.
