I went to a job fair and the company asked me how I felt about work 7 days a week. Like WTF.
They said one could expect overtime and every other week would likely be 7 days. They also explained "We are a Union job and we have to honor our contract." like WTF Union is this? I guess though some people want hours like this because they get the Overtime rate.
This was for a manufacturing job as I was considering trying something besides trucking.
Manufacturing, production, etc type jobs in Texas can easily be up to 7 days a week 10+ hour days depending on the company and how in demand they are. Before my career now I worked as a machinist we made stuff for the oil field. We worked 12 hour days, 7 days a week, for almost two months straight before we got a day off. Was great money though.I went to a job fair and the company asked me how I felt about work 7 days a week. Like WTF.

I don't like any of the shortcuts, including things like IDK for I don't know. I also am pissed that many schools are no longer teaching cursive.Maybe I’m just an old fuddy dud, but seeing kids (and adults) on Facebook use ion as short hand for I don’t, it hurts my brain.

Ion ? I haven't even seen that one
One thing related to this I find interesting is sometimes seeing Slang emerge and die quickly these days.
I think for a while, a phrase "That was clean." was starting to go around describing something done perfectly or executed flawlessly. Often related to gaming, but could be other things.
Quote some time ago I'd heard YOLO which seemed to die, try a come back, and just not stick.
Or some people tried to get "Amaze-Balls" going and it didn't really stick.
I think "GOAT" Greatest of All Time is one that is going to stick.
Also, versions of "Lit" or "That's is Fire" might stick.
"Lmao" still going strong.

Stay safe and stay hydratedBack to work tomorrow after about 3 months off and moving. It's been a nice break.
It sounds like they'll start me off delivering to Menards. That will be nice after ALDI, I prefer going to bigger stores with more room. Will eventually move on to a new warehouse to warehouse shuttle role.
