It doesn’t get much more “dear Facebook” than this. Are there that many OT members in this part of Tennessee?

The plant that exploded is in Kingsport, Tennessee but I believe there is one in St. Gabriel, LA as well.

If a plant blows up near Baton Rouge today, we will know that the much-rumored Butch Jones for Ed Orgeron trade has been consummated.

Kingsport is like 6x the size of Longview...

Never been but Eastman has a plant there that's pretty much the high end job sector of Longview.
When I lived in Tyler, they were always trying to get us EE's to co-op there.

This - very true. AND nasty molecules at Kingsport.

Plant Manager was probably asleep in the break room making $45.00 an hour.

My bro in law works there, first I heard about this. Need to send some text messages, thanks for the heads up.

They will just blame it on the Mead.

FIFY. Obviously, you have no idea what a plant manager makes

Honestly, I was born in Kingsport. My parents met while working at Eastman. So there.
