		34 Picking tomatoes Stockton Tomato pickers bring their full buckets to the truck to be counted, in the fields of the Triple-E Tomato Co., one of the world's largest tomato growers. Many workers complain that they are not credited for the true number of buckets they pick, or that buckets aren't counted for frivolous reasons. Workers struck and voted for the United Farm Workers at this company in 1988, but Triple-E has refused to sign a contract.
