I am a welder in a factory that is 125 degrees, 11 months a year. And to top that off, I don't get to wear shorts, tennis shoes, and I have to wear spark proof sleeves- so no short sleeves, either. I hump collectively thousands of pounds of steel everyday, my back hurts as I type this, and I make $12 an hour. I had a nice spark go in my boot 4 times just yesterday alone. Plus, ALOT of them NEVER get out of a vehicle.

Believe me, they make GREAT money and get a very good pension once they are done working. BTW, currently I have no health insurance, and once my six month temp status is up, I get laid off (again) and off to do it all over again at another sweatshop factory. Meanwhile, his job seems to be very safe. With unemployment as high as it is, they would have miles of people lining up to do that job at half what they make- including me.
