weld

Elmen a very good friend and drinking buddy, works in a small shop, building tricycles 6 days a week. at times he needs to work on Sundays just to finish some jobs.
A very hard worker.

working from 8am to 7pm, 6 days a week....
he earns $25 to $30 for a week's work.

"ok na 'to. malaking tulong na din. kesa sa wala"
(this is ok with me. it's already a big help to us. this is better than nothing at all.")

a typical Pinoy....hardworking, positive, resilient.
i salute you, Filipino workers.
