"Job?..."

For anyone who has complained about their job...this is a bit of a reality check. I believe this is one of the more difficult jobs I have seen people do.  It certainly is not something I have ever seen someone do, or even thought about someone doing.

In a country where there very few, if any factories, all things require people to do the work-even if something is imported, someone still needs to move the cargo.

This job requires breaking and sorting...rocks.  Yes, you read that correctly...rocks.  There are no fancy machines in Sierra Leone to break the rock and sort it into neat piles.  This is back breaking hard, hot work.  I am unsure how much the rock is sold for or even for that matter how often the rock is sold.  But these people have made it their job to supply different sized rock to their customers.
