It's absurd lol my job was complaining they can't find anyone to work, yet they're offering $16/hr for machinists that would need to drive an hour just to get here... It's a joke
Damn I'm a Machinist with only mediocre experience and even I don't get out of bed for less than $28. That shit's skilled labor even if a bunch of yuppie MBA's don't think it takes any skill.
I'm not even a machinist, I kinda wish I took that route. I came in as the lead assembler figuring I could prove my worth and "move up" into something better. Instead I became essential and am stuck lol
Thing is, you're not essential. If you left the company would move on. Maybe you should look elsewhere.
