Children are usually dropped out of school to work at the dump together with there parents, scavenging for anything that can be sold. They usually positions themselves at the entrance waiting for the arrival of garbage trucks. Upon their arrival, scavengers would scramble after the trucks and race to check every pile of trash and separate those that could be sold. Some of them has been working at the dump for almost ten years now and has gotten used to the rain, the fetid odor, scorching heat of sun, dust, and the hunger when there is little scavenging.
