Seen guys crying for OT, because they couldn't make ends meet on 40 hrs. They got used to the OT, and counted on it being there. Go from $1,800 plus a week to $1,200 a week.

I did this same deal.. I worked for a union in Detroit... Full blast 7x12s and then unemployment for a few weeks. Then another job and do it all over again... I was single, so I liked it. More time to ride motorcycles and go deer hunting (2 legged)

Always wanted a cruising bike; but the way these people drive here are insane

It would probably be a Harley Trike w/plenty of lights

That all sounds pretty good.

When I left Elliott. I was making $30.00hr in 2002. When I left Dynegy. I was making over $45 hr plus all the OT I could handle. My base pay was just short of $100,00. With OT, I was making $140,000 to $160,000 a yr. Toss in yearly bonus. Had a couple of guys getting 1,400hrs a yr in OT.

Those idiots were making $200,000 plus. But they had a lot of health and marriage issues too because of the hrs.

Yep/ there’s a local Michelin Tire plant here...that’s called “Get Divorced Place”
They range 35-45+OT & a rotating shift of 12’s....24/7 operation

At Dyengy. 200 hrs of vacation time, 520 hrs of sick time. That was both sick and short term combined. Uniforms. 401K, dollar for dollar up to 6%. Plus a Cash Balance plan. Which was based on how much you made for the month, years of service, plus your age. When you first start out. you would get about $200 a month put into the plan. When I left. I was getting around $2,000 a month.

Seemed like with Elliott. I would get laid off in late July or August. And get called back the day after Labor Day. So that they didn't have to pay us for the holiday.

Come back and work 7/12's for a couple of months.

The power plant was 24/7. Can't turn the lights out in that place.
