So, I don't ever eat on my lunchbreak here, and I usually end up taking a walk down by the golf course across the street. Tonight I headed outside to do just that when I ran into a member of the cleaning crew I've never seen before. We bring in these people from a company called Millenium. Out of all the ones that I've met, none of them speak English. I know for a fact that most, if not all of them are illegal immigrants. I aproached the new guy outside as he was smoking and said hi. After talking to him for a bit, I found out some interesting information. Aparently tonight is his first night, and he will be working from 6pm until 6am, 5 days a week. What the fuck? Now, I'm not a fan of illegal immigration at all, but working these guys 60 hours a week for what I'm sure must be less than minimum wage is just fucking insane. There are at least two members of the crew that I see every night, and have seen on nights that I cover for Ronnette. If these two are working 7 days a week, I want to find out hw many hours they're putting in.
Now I'm torn, though. I think I should report Millenium, but if I do, these people will be deported. I'm rather hypocritical in my views here, because generally I don't support hiring illegals, but I know these people, and don't want to see them deported. Should I just let them get taken advantage of? Or should I report Millenium, which will probably cause our cleaning crew to be deported? Crap. I think I'll wait until I can find out what they're getting paid at least. Decisions, decisions. Either way, these guys get screwed, but maybe I can make it better for the next batch that Millenium hires. I don't know what to do!

Sometimes, their name just doesn't match their voice and personality. For instance, I joke spoke with a Lisa, but she didn't sound like a Lisa at all. I wrote her name down as Esmerelda.

UPDATE!
Problem solved by Kali! Her idea was just to threaten Millenium unless they at least start paying minimum wage (which aparently, no, they aren't). Then I don't actually have to report them! The downside? Millenium will start charging my work more. In turn, we'll have to charge our clients more. Our clients will increase the prices for their patients, who are covered by health insurance. Premiums will skyrocket, and the whole country will hate me. I can live with that.
