Imagine no experience starting pay around $25/hour and doing 80 hr/weeks.  There are plenty of guys here in the early-mid 20's banking 6 figures.  All union protected, of course.

that totally explains ls1tech, it all makes since now. Now excuse me while i shoot myself for wasting time and money on school.

Maybe I'll go and knock Chevrons door at the refinery in Richmond, CA, christ, 25 bucks an hour with no experience? I'll take that in a heartbeat.

Around here you have to know someone on the inside to get in.  Ever seen Urban Cowboy?  Just like that.

Those greedy, no good, union line workers are bleeding the company to death. You know they had to switch from Crystal to Dom Perignon to on the General Motors fleet of executive private jets? Good Lord, have they no mercy?

I'm not so worried about the money the spend on the private jets...it's their attitude:

"Like many other major corporations, all three have policies requiring their CEOs to travel in private jets for safety reasons."

What commercial airlines are inherently unsafe for CEOs?  Or do they not want to mix with the peasants?

I don't know what's worse?  Bad executives or uneducated hordes all acting like they are bad executives.

It is like that in Wichita, KS if you want to work for Boeing, hawker-beachcraf, Cecena, Rythaon, and others
