But one little change in their $30/hr world, and you'd think they were being asked to give up a kidney.
I raised my 2 kids on a lot less money than UAW workers make and working longer hours 6 days a week. My kids still managed to get to and from school somehow.
I used to love to work four ten-hour days. Every weekend was three days long. AND there was the opportunity to work the fifth day and make some overtime.
My mother worked three twelve-hour days and got paid for 40 hours in Californica back in the 80s and she liked it too.
Sniveling little spoiled SOBs.
Did you ever work on a 106 degree factory floor with constant 90 db noise levels? It really saps the life out of you. If they paid factory workers the pittance you claim to have raised two kids on, no one would work in them unless you used slave labor.
Taking a pay cut to get out of a factory was the happiest day of my life. There is no job more dehumanizing than working an assembly line. I didn’t even work the line (I was the shift electrician), but I always felt bad for those guys who spent the whole shift out there in front of a machine.
Landis needs to come work S.Texas in August.

Well I worked construction in 175 degree heat and had to walk to work barefooted, uphill in both directions.
What a bunch of wusses. I used to work in a Plywood plant with dryers and presses going for the whole shift and in the summer(in CA)it was well over 110 in there.
I also worked 4 10 hour shifts for years and I loved it. 3 day weekend ever week. We did have the complainers saying it was soooo hard to work 10 hours straight but they were in the minority.
