CW: What do you like least about your job?
Johnson: The biggest thing is the wear and tear on your body. We do yoga, which helps the body stay more balanced and more stretched out. It is really important to stretch out your muscles because they bunch. I am coping with it at the moment. I really can’t quit. I am not going to go to college and learn computers at the age of forty-four. I am too stubborn for that.
CW: How much money do you make?
Johnson: About $1,000 a day. I share that with my husband. If I worked on my own, I would not accomplish as much. I could probably make $700 a day.
