DescriptionPoster with a black-and-white photograph of a person laughing, wearing a shirt with an eagle emblem, with text that says "AHI SE VA (There it goes)." Text below the photograph reads: "No me haga reir, patrón! Está viendo las sobas que me pongo, y todavía me exige calidad… -se de perdida fuera yo a consumir lo que produzco... pero en la calle vale DIEZ VECES MAS de lo que me gano por hacerlo... lo siento patrón a mi ME VALE la calidad. - no soy el riquillo que va a disfrutar el producto de mi esfuerzo, ni soy usté que se lleva la lana." In English: "Don't make me laugh, boss! He's seeing the sobas I eat, and he still demands quality from me... -I know it's a waste of time for me to consume what I produce... but on the street it's worth TEN TIMES MORE than what I earn for doing it... I'm sorry, boss. I'm worth the quality. - I am not the rich person who is going to enjoy the product of my effort, nor am I the one who collects the cash."On View
