Like 2 days after I posted, the temp agency I applied at called and said they had a job for me. Ended up getting a job at Temple-Inland, a corrugated packaging manufacturing plant. I start at $8/hr, work 7am to 330pm, (7am-7pm with overtime days). Gotta say I like it ALOT better than McDs. Congrats,  Finding work in Ohio economy is tough but they're out there. Got done 4 hrs ago, 7pm to be exact. Pulled in 3 12hrs days in arow, off nex two days, nextweekend I'm off. I enjoy the set schedule used to the 12hrs. plus having steady flow of work load, heard during the summer its busier. For me I have to be ther 15minutes til 7a cause they tell you (me) which area to work at. This staffing place that hire start me at 8 also, then moves up once I'm fully hired by the company pay will increase. Hope it does well for you. Found out that once I'm hired I'll move up to 9.40 hr. The temp service gets 2.00 fee from my pay rate, so at the moment its 7.40. So far its going good, have schedule ahead of time for March from the staff that got me in. I work in manufacturing industry also. Hows its working out for you so far 740brick. About %100 better than working in fast food. I dont want to say I love it yet, mostly because Im about 2 weeks in so Im on all the bitch work. Shit rolls downhill, you know. Ive been on a few machines so far though and I like that. I feel like Im having more fun at work. Im making $8.00 an hour, hopefully within 6 months I get a raise. Not bad pay, but I have a lot of things on the want list.
Same here I'm having alot of fun also. I was very surprised, at my new thought it would be a quota and rotate to different machines every half hour. An older guy thats been here for 5+ years told they used to do this years ago not anymore.
I would rather delivery pizza than work at fast food, less drama bs plus its fun learn the area plus make decent tips/mileage. Thought about doing this again while working 12 hrs at my new job, with my 2gnt. lol
Agree, pay isn't that bad but I heard from my brother who worked for these temp agencies, that you actually are paid two dollars more an hour when you get hired in. I'm on my third week, notice that the Staffing service only takes out 2.00 bucks for their fees but they are paid 2.00 hour. Which aint bad, so that 2.00 would actually be added to my pay rate. Same, would be for you also, technically you would actually been paid 10 an hour not 8.
I have a pretty big list also, first is a bigger toolbox, get my current 2g up to par and later buy a second 2g as backup. __ 1995 gs Saved from the crusher 1998 RS gone to(Dsm Heaven) 1997 gs gone to Dsm heaven
