POV: You’re a grass weaver in the Philippines…. I’m on a mission to build the world’s longest resume. This is what I learned while working as a grass weaver: 1. Working in the cave is actually an important part of their process because it controls their environment and regulates the temperatures. If they worked in the sun, or inside of a hot house, the grass would become too brittle and break. Working in the cave not only provides shade, but keep the temperature cool enough to work throughout the day. 2. While a coaster could take a few hours to make, a bigger piece like a mat can take a week! However, I was stunned to find out that the entire process of making a mat could actually take up to a month when you consider the time it takes to pick the grass, dry it, then dye it, and then finally flatten it, all before you're able to actually make the product. 3. Unfortunately, these incredible artisans make far less than minimum wage in the Philippines because their pay is based on commission per piece, they don’t make money unless items are sold. Even once the item sells, they all split the sale which in this case is between 10 weavers. #philippines #career #salary
