That guy is delusional and full of shite. There is a massive shortage of skilled labor in this country. He should have said "But the chances of finding something like I used to have near me are slim to none." He may have to move but there are places in this country that would gladly give him 3x what he's making now, he'll just have to seek it out.

who is 49 and went back to school a few years ago to earn an associate’s degree.


I would be very curious to know what that degree is in.

I have been involved with the semi conductor industry for over 20 years, salaries ten plus years ago were in the mid twenties for our production workers, now it is in the mid teens and dropping. Robots are increasingly taking the production jobs, and lowering the human wages.
