kiwi fruit packing

stand by the conveyor and work like a human machine. squeeze the fruit with the palm, and not with the fingers or thumb. reject any soft ones, and throw away any fruit with black marks caused by juice. replace the reject fruit with one from the 'donor' box. dump it all into a box or arrange in the appropriate tray.

it may sound easy, after all its just using the hands. but we have to stand for long hours too, and move the boxes repeatedly. we are however, happy that there's work. moreover, its truly a New Zealand experience.
