I'm a maintenance mechanic and manufacturing hiring is insane right now and wages are probably 50% higher than they were 3-5 years ago

Unfortunately this still means you are going to average $16-$20 for unskilled/entry level positions but anyone with maintenance experience, especially PLCs, is in a pretty great spot.
Even the increased entry level wages isn't enough to get anyone in the door. Why would they when you can make the same in retail?

It turns out that threatening to quit then backing down only to come at them with an FMLA form worked for getting them to hire a temp at double the wage that they refused to pay multiple candidates.

...so nothing changed?

on my last day another employee got in a fight with the boss and walked out. word is offshoring work to India and the Philippines at this point. i hope it works out well for them.

We went from minus -2 employees to -1 and I got moved from swingshift back to pm shift.

The boss is still filling in for the -1 by working midnights

FMLA was for "Shift Work Disorder" lmao

You just need to put in your 12 years in Nonprofits then all your student debt is forgiven and you'll have outlasted all your rivals who don't have generational wealth. Then the directorship and the 75K salary that comes with it is yours for the taking.

Smoking a recreational drug that prevents you from getting a good job seems like a very smart thing to do in a recession..

I once interned for a systems integrator, and I was assigned to work on-site at a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility as a contractor. Not only did I get tested for the job but I had to get tested on premises to be permitted onto the pharmaceutical campus

sucks to be the more qualified and more competent pothead stoner systems integrator
