re: Do you legitimately enjoy your job?

For my area and what I do, it’s one of the better paying jobs. Shift work sucks now I’m older. And the younger guys they hire for the most parts don’t give a damn and you gotta pick up their slack time to time. Management seems too nervous to say anything or write them up. We don’t have a high turnover, and I guess they like it that way. But when push comes to a shove, they’ll call you up front for a meeting and send you packing. It’s just they let it go wayyyy too long before that happens.

Edit. We’ve done a lot of “automation” in recent years. But the newer guys don’t understand that it isn’t perfect and computers can fail. They think they can just hit GO and walk away. It works 99% of the time, but it’s the 1% that’ll bite you in the arse if you don’t keep an eye on it. shite can go from awesome to holy shite in a minute, and they don’t know what to do when it does. It’s like a babysitting service daily.
