Woman working four jobs dies in her car

Very sad story found on the Huffington Post: Maria Fernandes, Who Worked 4 Jobs, Dies While Napping In Car

Just sad that anyone in America is reduced to this, in my opinion.

America is reduced to hiring illegal immigrants, while citizens can't get one job.

Very sad story indeed. My prayers are for the Fernandes family.

Actually, no, she was born in Portugal and immigrated to the US. Not sure how that is relevant one way or another.

Oh, it isn't at all, one way or another, but I thought someone was implying that she was an illegal immigrant.

But the article states "Fernandes was born in Massachusetts, but at about age nine, moved to Portugal with her parents. Fernandes returned to the United States in her late teens, at first living with a family friend."

Very tragic. Reminds me of my grandmother who worked like three jobs just to place a room over the heads of her children and me and my brother.

Portugal is so bad that people leave it just to work 4 minimum wage jobs in America.

Sad, but I'd have gone to a more affordable area before staying in NJ and having to work four jobs.

Huffington Post is a crap news source. I wouldn't believe them if they said the earth orbits the sun.
