a week ago my son took a job making 35 an hour moving a couple into their house , it was only for 2 days but yeah people realize you have to pay more to get help

last week he started his job as a mechanic in training at a local shop 12 an hour 35 a week unless they get busy , it can go up soon and fast but he is 18 and wants to learn more than he wants 20 an hour , he was making 16 an hour over the summer at a cheese plant , they are paying 20 to full time people.

there isn't much skill in moving 16 ton a cheese a day even if the pay is good it goes away when your body is worn and your mind weak

Wimmen go nuts in that place Dave. And they're closed Sundays because they're a Christian organization.

I went thru a McD drive thru last week to grab a sammich and the gal in front of me dropped $70 on meals. McD can raise their prices just a little and cover that $15/hr rather easily it seems. I prefer the $3 bundle myself.

Dave can get a woman to decorate his house with little dolls that stare at you and she can cook your meals , and use your hobby lobby discount.

Working at hobby lobby you'll always have cheap trap wax. Women around you all the time(probably won't be stripping though) and a lot higher pay with Sundays off to put up fur.
Maybe their workers won't annoy you as much. I say sign out an application. What do you really have to lose but a job you obviously hate.

The place I work is paying $23.30 to start with full benefits including a pension and we can't get close to enough people. There are plenty of jobs around paying over $20 here.

Coonman you ought to stand down and be thankful for what you have. I operate a big fencepost mill. Starting pay is $11.00 an hour to stack and band 8 foot fence posts. 30 days I give .50 cent raise 90 days in I give another .50 cents. That gets you to $12.00 hour@ 50 to 60 hours a week, I pay time and a half after 40 hours, Paid holiday if it falls on a work day. Thats it...My 4 Foreman are at $17.00. 4 men stack and band, the mill produces a post every 6 1/2 seconds. Right now I am running 4 inch. posts next week we go back to 6 inch. You say you work hard, come see me I will show you hard work. Oh 30 minute paid break at 10am 1/2 hour lunch and 30 minute break at 3pm. My oldest stacker is 60 and the youngest is 21 I buy pizza on Friday. I haven't hired or fired in 3 months, but would make a spot for you. PS I bet our coons are worth at least as much as yours maybe more. I don't drug test....


you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

I remember my dad telling me about Europe between the WW 's .
He told me inflation got so bad it took a wheel barrel of money to buy a loaf of bread .
I'm sure he stretched it some , but you have to admit it's looking like it now .

My understanding about Hobby Lobby (and no there's none near me) is that 80-90% of it's workforce is part time. I'm thinking only their managers will be the ones making $18.50 since it only applies to F/T workers.
