The only time I ever cried watching TV was for the season 2 finale of The Wire. The final vestiges of the white working class. Maybe Trump will help. Who knows.

Yikes. What a long posting. Mail a postcard?

My dad works at a union steel plant. They have lotteries like this every few years and the only way to apply is through the state employment office. It's an archaic way of hiring.

You sound like a faggot and an idiot. Your steelworker dad is probably ashamed of you.

>>1727232
Care to explain what the fuss is? Is the payment so high?

>>1727424
Yes because you die fifteen years or so too early from mesothelioma and shit like that. Worth it though. Everyone's got to go sometime. Plus there's a lot of journeyman stuff that goes on. I know more than a few mostly unskilled guys who ended up in the yards and worked their way up.

I have TWIC clearance

Yes the pay is very good.

Actually its amazing how many old timers are alive and still working and not dead from lung cancer. It's hard to advance because there are so many baby boomers in the 60s and 70s still operating cranes and bossing.

Just say you have a TWIC card. You're not Jack Bauer.

I knew things were bad there but I didn't realize they were that bad.

Who said that?
