A lot of those 9-5 jobs are most likely transient jobs. Not to say they're geared towards illegal immigrants (although many probably are...), but they pay little, often have hours that have nothing to do with 9-5, and have a high turnover.

People will work there for awhile, then leave. Or they are fired. Or jailed.

Most of these jobs are not a career choice. They're just an under-paid option of little to no worth that'll temporarily help you pay the rent and buy some food.
