Is this a joke, or are you so out of touch that you don't think a labourer could have a desire to ever travel?

As a purely leisure traveler, I can't see why anybody would put themselves through the US border system as the start of their holiday. Talk about starting on a downer.

Why would a software engineer want to visit the US?

For example to attend a conference. Things like a "World Plumbing Conference" exist, though I'm not sure if it was ever held in the US.

I was once going through security in Romania when a plumber was in the queue. He'd brought his full tool kit with him, which provided much hilarity for the security personnel as it was obviously full of things you're not allowed on aircraft.
