Gleaming is to collect the fallen ears after harvesting. Gleaming is an ancient way, but now there are machines, and there are not many ears of wheat left in the field, so there is no need for gleaning. Although the behavior of gleaning is about to become extinct, people who pick up rags still exist in our society. There are people picking up junk in cities and villages They make a living off the things no one eats They rejoice at picking up a little tasty treat
Someone told about a guy in rubber boots near Agnès who makes a living by picking up rubbish S went to interview him and learned that he has a job and meets social security standards. In fact, there is no need to pick up litter at all, but he still makes a living by picking up litter. Anez asked him why he said it was because thrift was a virtue for him, and he saw waste. I can't stand a lot of food thrown away, but it's past its expiration date, but it's still edible. He's been eating like this for more than ten years and never got sick. Agnès asked him why he was wearing rubber boots. He said it made me feel like a lord of the city. keep all idiots away
