	When you worded at the  poultry plant were you 12 years old Lynn?

	Kids belong in school even if they do not think so.  Someone was working
at the poultry packing plants but ICE carried them away to rot in San 
Salvador.

I was working in my family's restaurant peeling potatoes and washing 
dishes, pots
and pans but that was in the 1940s and 1950s.  But that was in the 
summer and
after school if some of what I was good at needed doing.
