Find a better job as you've been told for several years now, and forget retiring early because your gonna need every extra dollar once you can't work and draw both.

Simple as that..

Look back at previous posts that I made listing companies that pay far more but you don't want to go try those.
Bodine Electric is still hiring for 4 10 hour shifts starting at about $19 an hour and you'll get raised about to around $22 in 15 months. You'd also have benefits and could get go to the Dr. if needed and get your knee looked at.
I listed several places and you ignored all of them.
I'm sure you got it figured out though and you're gonna stack those coon up this fall and make a fortune on that.
I think you like where you work and love to complain about it.

Good Luck and I mean that but you've got to help yourself too.

With 10 million unfilled jobs in the US, there are many that will give you more satisfaction, better pay, and medical benefits.

I think pretty much everyone, at times, have to work with people they don't like. That's part of life. If you start a new job and have to work with people, try being friendly to them, even if you don't like them because they're lazy, or black, or whatever. Don't complain to them about the job, even if they complain to you about it first. Don't chit chat, either... just go in and do your job, talking when you need to, but not when you don't.

I definitely wouldn't recommend telling a prospective employer that you don't want to work with other people. Most employers are big on their employees being "team players" even if the employees mostly work alone.

Would you like working for a farmer? I know that farmers in Iowa might need some help during harvest. Farming is often by yourself. As long as you are productive and don't year stuff up, you should be able to find the job of your dreams. You may have to start out less than $15 / hr. Until the farmer sees whether you are worth your salt.

So what you’re gonna want to do is ... cut yourself several lengths of discarded osha failed extension cord about 2 and a half foot long .... stash those sumguns in the uppers on your redwing work boots.... slip on into the ol factory like it’s just another day, and right when they least expect it... let out a full on Rebel Yell and start jerkin down britches and blisterin bare butts like it was the second coming of Stonewall Jackson...., Can I Get An Amen Ol Hand !!!!!!

Suck it up butter cup and take the and take the options others have offered you. I am not going to worry about a job if I am not happy because I have never burnt my bridges along the way. So if I am laid off from one place I can call another and have a good job in a few hours.

Re: Find pt job that work byself - 09/10/21 01:00 PM

Here is my advice.... Your planning to retire in 10 months. You have already spent 3 years to long in the place your at now. I'd say close your eyes, ears, and mind, tough out the next 10 months and retire. From the sounds of it the company will give you a gold watch at your retirement for staying with them for so many years.

no exit interviews , I doubt many factories do that , new ones work someone shoe them how or how punch in an out jobs an all other complex stuff u got know, alot, there lot new hires work others not just me, I was real nice when work them, exit interview , some never say nothing , walk out door an gone , work with one an hh bfore break start , ask if break was 15 min, never seen again , stuff like that all time , that what kind help u get nowadays alot places an way they are , not going be just all candy when u start a new job, like I say a week ago , it ok work byself alot done, black Chicago girl come over, was real nice , my speed didn't increase an drop 20 per cent of before, she was like a anchor , she must seem oil an thought horrid, , say was make $28 a hr in Chicago , no idea if some bs story , idk less but thought cone there it was all candy or something, these AA ppl always got something go on, never get thing done like some new not a others , if not go restroom a hh , got get gloves got get bandaid I got sliver, I don't feel good I go home etc , basically what any factory like wherever , few do all work an other just kickback an nothing

I remember you posted Bodine was within a few hundred yards of the machine shop you work at now. There's plenty of them on that list that are common labor jobs that pay a lot more than what you make and are close to the same distance to drive.
I can see you staying put because it's hard to leave a job you love.

Probably wouldn't hold my breath waiting on the phone to ring.

You just need for trapping season to get here so you can go trap a bunch of coons, rats and mink. That's working for yourself and if you stay off the 4 lane roads you should be just fine. You've got all the supplies, traps and such. Groenwald obviously likes your golden triangle coons, you made $7+ average last year no reason to think you would do any less this season. You know where the animals are in your area, no need to waste gas scouting locations. Trap harder than ever and make some money doing something you like to do... by yourself!

4 lane roads are where get alot stuff, alot trap spots along row, back roads some, but far less places stop , no shoulder on co. Hiway , many small farms in places with lots driveways, houses an driveways right next to bridge where u don't just set traps practically someone backyard, u can trap along 4 lane rows, if u had 500 coon at $7 or even more possible as I never get 500, got 300 coon I could see but the thing to it is , all miles an gas an wear an tear , u have to have lot permission in top places for coon with them be close together an catch 300 in not that long time, u make a lil maybe , look at maps, sone parts southern Iowa have lots streams an bridges in heavy populated.

Coonman….Trap to Jan 1 or so. Then try to get a job working for a Iowa fur company or even GWF company in ILL from January to March 31. You will need to bring your camper with you but you will be around the fur industry that you like. Skinning and fleshing. The GW brothers are good folks. I worked for them a few months back in the 1980’s when jobs were tough to find. Only reason I left was I needed better Insurance. But you could make enough money in 3 months than working all year. They would I bet work a deal out with you were they would cut you a check every week or 2 and not mess up your SS. That’s what I would do. It’s a very very interesting place to work.
I bet you wound like it. I did , have very good memories working for GWF. Drive over and talked to them about it. MD

Well Groeny is a poster on here so maybe he'll read this and clear up if he hires all Mexicans and pays low wages. Coonman seems to be in the know on the workings of GFW. I have no idea how though.
Maybe one of the regulars could send Groeny a PM so he reads this and if he'll offer up a job to coonman. Possible liason between HR and the crew.??

$7.00 a Raccoon x 300 Raccoon is only $2,100.00. Subtract your cost for Gas, Bait, Lure, time skinning the Raccoon. Lost or stolen traps, License, At $7.00 a Raccoon , you are not making ANY MONEY!! You are SPENDING MONEY! Did they tell you how much Social Security you would make if you waited till 65 or full retirement at age 70 ?

Dave, You seem to have the gift to read people and form your impressions rather quickly. You know you are a hard worker and what lazy workers look like. You know that you don't care for some minorities and certain ethnicities. You don't trust what others have tried hundreds of times to explain to you about trapping, ROW's and market prices etc., etc. And, you know when people are lying about what jobs pay per hour.

So, I guess the obvious question is: Why don't you apply for a position in Human Resources? grin

Coonman. …. GWF they are good people. It was one of the best jobs I ever had. It was like I was not even going to work. I worked in the tan fur room. Boxed up and shipped fur all over the USA. But they have lots of jobs. You don’t know until you talk to them in person. Like I said work from Jan1 when most of the coon trapping is over to April 1.
It was really a interesting job. Have you ever seen a 44 pound raccoon hanging from a scale ? I did at GWF.
Did you ever see a 81 pound beaver hanging from a scale ? I have at GWF. I think you would enjoy working there. Take a camper work and live there for 4 months. Make enough money to get you through the rest of the year and not mess up your SS. It’s one of the few places I think you would enjoy working at.
I don’t know what else to tell you. I have been in Mfg Management for 42 years. Hated every day of it chasing people out of crapper and making them work. GWF was one of the funniest jobs I have ever had in my life. Marty
