    It’s there, honestly, I’d work OT while being a salaried employee. But your attitude towards it is the exact reason people don’t want these manufacturing jobs. So you’re only proving my point.

      Where I am, 70-90 k is an absolute shit salary is my point. It might be great where you are, but where I am, that’s not buying you a house. That’s about what our more senior technicians make, but the entry level guys make like $25-28/hr. Almost every office job at our company pays more. I love turning bolts, but it’s objectively harder work for less money, and that is why I don’t want those jobs.
