I’ve always thought those jobs should pay way more than easier/cleaner jobs.

I was a welder/fabricator for 25 years. I also serviced electric signs in FL during those years and have spent time inside signs when it was 98 degrees outside and 120+ inside.

I also spray painted at a company for close to a year and hated that job. Bunch of unorganized rude people running the place and all they cared about was profit.(and not becoming union)

There were trailer manufacturers nearby and from what I heard, they were all sweat shops and hard to work at. No proper ventilation and they push, push, push you. Sounds like that’s what this company in TX is like. How much money would you need to have someone cussing you out and calling you an idiot all day? All while you breath fumes that will kill you in 20 years.

A lot of Southern companies have a deep fear of the employees “organizing” and so they play lots of head games and make everyone miserable. They do that to make sure they have dumb, desperate people working their.

btw, why didn’t you have fresh air supplied suits? They keep you nice and cool. Did the suits cost too much?

Wait I thought we are supposed to corporations. Particularly the multinationals who enforce ridiculous hiring quotas and scream for evermore H-1Bs. With this Texas company we just failed to use our privilege to start our own sweatshop.
