There was a Freeper who posted recently that his coal mining son is working so much overtime now that he is going to be able to buy his dream home 3 years early.
USA is apparently producing as fast as it can but cannot keep up with demand
“There was a Freeper who posted recently that his coal mining son is working so much overtime now that he is going to be able to buy his dream home 3 years early.”
That was me but he is my renter. Works for Consol. Coal co’s are paying retired miners thousands of dollars in bonuses to come back to work. The mine is going 24/7.
He has been making a killing with double and triple overtime.
Coal is finnicky though. Next year if we have a moderate winter and summer he would most likely be paid off.
It’s a feast or famine business.
