day-boy
n.— «Crowds and queues of “day-boys” before and inside the gates of the Free Port, fondly called gateway to Liberia’s economy, braving and struggling under the whips and wallops of security guards, to fend for themselves and their families is a nauseating experience that should stare into the faces of policy makers.» —“Liberia: Government Must Address Plight Of The Jobless” Liberian Times Aug. 3, 2006.
