  5. And people complain about automating stuff because it "eliminates jobs."

  6. Irish: I personally have never seen a car where when the daylight running lights are on, any bulbs in the rear are working. Most people don't know that when they have their daylight running lights on Automatic, that they have no rear lights working. Just saying.

  7. That's some serious safety equipment they have there!

    I've never seen people wearing flip-flops in a place like that before.

  8. Destabilize the country and wait for the desperate to show up at your door. They'll either do it or starve. If they can even afford to buy something to eat. Thanks unipartee.

  9. Sure, I'll throw water at you for $50/hr. Other jobs, not so much.

    1. There in Squatsville, the closet by miles to the foundery, a bowl of rice is $12. With sauce (don't ask) $22.

  12. Yes, of course.
    When all labor is similar, it's not difficult, it's normal.

    1. On the other side of the planet from this place, you won't see any clipboard carrying, bow tie wearing, sparkling new hard had sporting, pencil pushin', dweebs in that factory or on that continent.

  16. I am guessing they are douching him in water to keep him from spontaneous combustion. I would not work here, seems a bit sketchy however, I worked for three years on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier so what do I know!!

  19. Guess no one ever worked is a steel mill ? Bethlehem Steel had a 35 inch mill that fed a 22 inch mill that had many similarities to this. We did however were layers of clothing , hard hats, and asbestos gloves for safety. Hard, hot, dangerous work but it paid well (as the saying goes). The steel went under and the 22 inch mill was sold to China. I have no doubt it is use to this day.
