Dang. Lost in translation, for me, was that this is your part time job. No advice. Other than... Look at the frog legs posted and just think of possible greener pastures!

I know the company my wife works for pays Sedonia temp agency half the hirees wage. If you pay them $12 per hour, Sedonia gets $6 per hour off . So they pay $18 per hour total. They only hire those workers if they have to, most don't show up or extremely worthless. Sedonia temp has a contract with the company for like 350 hours and you can't hire them full-time unless contract is up or you buy them out at $6 x hours left on contract( for example). This is fact for my wife's company.

Just stay where you're at and quit complaining. If you went to Bodine you wouldn't be working the part time job any more period. You'd have 1 job that pays more than both of your jobs. You'd also have benefits, paid vacation time, paid holidays off etc. It's not a hard concept to get that. I don't know why you'd think you were going to be working at 2 places at the same time.

You just don't want to work period and that's becoming obvious although I was holding onto optimism. You'd rather lose money trapping than work and make money. You'd have time to run traps and make sets before you went to work in the afternoon. Once again it's not a hard concept. I done it before when I was on night shift getting out at 3 or 4 am, You'd also have 3 days off a week. It can easily be done but it's easier for you to say it can't.

I haven't trapped for years because of the low prices and back a few years ago when they were higher I was working FT getting some OT there along with working a part time job. I had stretches of 63 and 57 days in a row and several over 30 where I was working one or the other and sometimes both in the same day. It didn't leave much time to trap,fish etc. You have to make a decision if your hobby is more important than your finances. It seems like you've made that choice and that's fine just don't complain about losing money doing it.

Also you're forgetting in a previous post you said you work 300 yards from Bodine now so you're not going to be driving through Dubuque anyway. The distance is no different. Both manufacturing jobs I posted are in Peosta where you work now. You're grasping at straws to come up with excuses of why they won't work. In reality it's you that doesn't want to work. I guess I just didn't want to see it. I don't know if there's anybody that can help you.

Good luck and I do mean that.

Yup!!! I think you have figured it out also.. he doesn’t want to work. He wants full time pay on a super part time job, or jobs. So he can lose money trapping a few months a year.


Dave won’t listen to any of this though.

After reading your threads for the last few years Dave, I see one thing...... You should be concerned about all of your complaints.

#1. "Dorks"
#2. "Race"
#3. Constant complaining
#4. You seem very unhappy in life and that's sad. Nobody should be this unhappy.

If you talk this way around the people you work with your likely to become an accident in the workplace.

I too was miserable in my job. I quit. Now I'm happy. But I don't rely on factory jobs. You need to find something that your good at and enjoy. Quit your job and become self-employed. You can keep your "easy" part time job and set your own hours being your own boss.

I'm not going to email them this post.

I was going to report them to OSHA, since you are afraid to.

Let OSHA sort it out.

Making life changes can be extremely painful. Many times we don't see that our own way of looking at things may be causing our troubles. It takes people who care to tell you EXACTLY what you need to hear to get your attention. Dave, I don't understand these machinery issues.... But I think it's time to listen to your trapperman family.....they're trying to help you

Badger23 I really commend you on your effort to help Dave out, but after all you've done he just gets mad and calls everyone an anti??? I really don't think he wants a full time job with vacation, holiday pay and great benefits so he could get that knee fixed, because then he wouldn't have anything to complain about

In all reality, I think none of coonman's post are true. I believe he is a troll that just keeps stringing all of us good hard working, non complaining, people along.

Coonman just tell these anti's that trapping is not a job it is who you are and you need to be who you are no matter how silly it may seem to 99 percent of the human population to trap coon for $5 a piece. You are a contrare and these are special people who should be revered not bullied by internut bullies. This is America where you are free not to have to earn a living and that is what makes America great.
