There still people they deserve a job as much as you do. Don't complain about your job because back in their country the get payed half you do for more laborious tasks and most of time don't even have fresh drinking water.

I love my job and have done it for years, never complain. So why should I have what I love stolen by some ungrateful people who just want an easy ride and don't put any effort into anything other than stealing jobs?

[Ifreann]

If you wanted to keep your job you should have competed better. Capitalism, dontcha know. *nods*

Theres not mcuh to compete with when they slash our tires, prevent your from going to work, harrass family members,

Yes, I'm sure that not only are all these things happening, but the police are in on it and all!

and attempt to blackmail the store with lies about who they are?

What, are they pretending to be from the health inspector or something? "Give me a job or I'll have you shut down for health code violations"?

I find it incredibly amusing that the Mexican government protests when we crack down on illegal immigration. You would almost think they have some nefarious plot to undermine the US. Never mind that if they were doing any kind of decent job governing, maybe their citizens wouldn't be flocking to the States.

Why should you get to keep the job if your employer wants to pay someone else less to do it?

Good, America for Americans, these Mexicanos can become an American, they can just do it legally, like everyone else did.

Lets take a look at the legal process for immigration from Mexico.

If you were the brother or sister of a U.S. citizen and you were born in Mexico, your U.S. citizen sibling
could file an I-130 petition for you by paying a $355 fee. The United States Citizenship and Immigration
Services (USCIS) will take your sibling’s money, process the petition, and advise you that you have been
placed in a line to await your visa call.
But one important fact USCIS will not tell you is that, based on the large number of already registered
immigrant-visa applicants from Mexico, you will have to wait approximately 131 years to reach the front of
the line to receive your visa, and that is only if your sponsoring U.S. citizen relative is still alive at that
time.

Now that, is fucking theft.

They aren't taking our jobs.

I dont find your sarcasm funny at all. If other people being forced to pay thousands of dollars for repairs is funny to you then, well, its funny to you.
So far only has been arrested because I caught him on video slashing my tires and spray painting my fence. And no, they are not acting as health inspectors but don't give them any ideas...

Didn't you hear? They're somehow blackmailing employers with lies about who they are. Hey, maybe they're pretending to be Sicilians. "Gimme a job, esse, or I'll put a horse's head in your bed".

because I put effort into my job, attempt to make the customer happy and make them feel good about coming into our shop, keep a positive face, am friendly to the others that work there who have respect, and am tolerant of ungrateful customers.

Hey, it happens. I've just never seen it happen before.

That's okay, I'm having great fun with it.

What's funny is this grand conspiracy you seem to have concocted in your head.

Facing growing anti-immigrant rhetoric, the United Farm Workers union is challenging Americans to take their labor-intensive, low-paying farm jobs. Despite the dismal job market in the U.S., where the unemployment rate is 9.5% and 14.6 million people are out of work, there have been few takers. Only a few dozen have really followed through with the process.

because I put effort into my job, attempt to make the customer happy and make them feel good about coming into our shop, keep a positive face, am friendly to the others that work there who have respect, and am tolerant of ungrateful customers.

And an immigrant can't do all of that for less? >_>

So how are they blackmailing employers?

They are creating false documents and attempted to make a rap sheet for me and others employed at my store. They have threatened the store physically and verbally from afar and have made bomb threats against the store if they dont get rid of the current workers. That kind of blackmail.

Then call the police, or alert the owner. Or both. Its not that amazingly hard. Or, even better, prove that you don't have a criminal record.

[Ceannairceach]

One case out of many, friend; Unless you offer proof that all or the majority of immigrants, allegedly, threaten you or your place of work, its a unique case.

Call the police- Check
Alert the owner-Check

Simply call the police and alert them that they are threatening criminal action against your place of work. Record any conversations or such that make hints towards a possible bombing. Give such evidence to the police.

You make it sound much more difficult than it actually is.

If they don't have a job, how are they going to make a bomb?

Unique, expensive, and annoying case, But it is affecting my overall judgement of immigrants. However if one shows respect to me, illegal or not, I show respect back. I just want these few gone...
