People at Work

I thought of including this in "environmental Portraits", but it is not close enough to be a portrait. This picture emphasizes the interaction of people, machines, and their work.

Cigar roller - Gibara, Cuba You may have seen a previous photo of her taken two years ago. She still sits at the same bench doing the same thing. 18 years rolling cigars in that factory as I remember. The bundle of 50 cigars in her hand represents about 10 minutes of her work. Nice lady and she gives me a few free cigars whenever I see her at work.

Cubans who work for the state (70% of the workforce) have this expression "we pretend to work, they pretend to pay us".
