Good for you, Nirvana!

xoxoxoBruce 06-12-2014 02:02 PM

It was a tough decision for the because on one hand you're a model employee, but on the other you're a trouble maker with an ugly battle scar. :lol2:

Seriously though, congratulations. I hope the job pans out the way you want.

Thanks Glatt

OMG xoxoxoBruce you have me pegged! ;) But I made a list of good and bad...

$8 above other local factory pay
11 paid holidays
10 paid vacation days
a safe clean place
health insurance
2nd shift
I get to make candy :p:
$25 monthly work safe bonus
[we had over 400 days without an OSHA reportable accident prior to scalded kid no bonus this month]

************************
Weird company policies
training lazy types
working 40 hrs :mg:

After the young kid got scalded we can no longer wear shorts capris or any type of pants that will show legs. No one will see my battle scar. ;)

I don't think some people at this place understood that I don't need a career. I've had several. I like to work.

Maybe they had to learn like my husband did if I am hungry you have to feed me. :)

Congrats, Nirvana!

Your comment re age was well done ... they suddenly realized they were staring down the barrel of a federal issue/lawsuit. They looked over your file and took their heads out of their a**es and did the right thing. Way to go!

You are too kind O after hiring what passes for high school graduates nowadays its most likely they decided they needed at least some people there that were capable of making the candy [correctly] ;) Right now I have 8 large boxes of sealed candy that came from 5 skids they gave to employees and you realize how hard it must be for some of them to count to 12 [bags of candy] :rolleyes:

orthodoc 06-12-2014 06:38 PM

You'll be CEO there in no time. ;)

Nirvana 06-12-2014 07:29 PM

There is nothing upwardly mobile about me O, plain 'ole candy maker suits me fine :)
