In this Thursday Jan. 30, 2014, photo, forklift driver William Felix, 56, attends a devotional at the Salvation Army in Los Banos, Calif. Now unemployed, Felix said that he has been to a local cannery four times this winter asking for work with no luck. He doubts a call will come at all this year, given the state’s drought. “If we don’t get rain, we don’t get work,” Felix said. For now, he relies on free food from the Salvation Army as well as a spiritual boost. (AP Photo/Scott Smith)
