“Empezaron a ir seguido. Entonces nos empezaron a dar clases, que llevaban a unas 10. Y luego llevaban otras, y asi. Pero fue ya a lo ultimo cuando ya estaba uno ya *se rasca la piel*. Entonces decían que tenía que ponerse la gente con mangas largas y usar tenis o botas y todo asi, pero nada más era cuando pensaban que iban a ir inspeccionar.” 

 

“[Inspectors] started going often. Then they started to give us classes; they would take a few or 10. Then others would go and like that. But that was at the end, when you were already *scratches.* Then they would say that we had to put on long sleeves, tennis shoes, boots, and everything like that, but that was only when they went to inspect.”

“Las pesticidas son una cajita de pandora donde hay muchas violaciones.” 

 

“Pesticides are a little pandora’s box where they are a lot of violations.”

Caption: “Entrenamiento? Para realizar el trabajo pues ninguno, solamente haces eso y te explican tantito y aprendes como puedas; eso es para realizar el trabajo. Pero hablando sobre los químicos y los pesticidas ellos solamente te ponen un video y en ese tiempo también solamente el video era en ingles y tu le entiendas lo que veías en las imágenes y lo que no tu te lo arreglas como tu puedas.”

 

“Training? To do the job well none. Only do this and they explain a little and you learn how you can; that’s to do the job. But speaking of chemicals and pesticides, they only show you a video, and in that time the video was also only in English, and you understand what you see in the images and the rest you figure out how you can.”
