Yup that’s about how it works. I did it for 3 summers. At less that what they pay now. was working 55-78 hrs. Tried to bring home more than a grand in a week. Couldn’t do it, taxes fuck you on OT. Best I brought home was $998, gross was like $14xx. Sundays are double time, anything over 8hrs are 1.5-time.

They do hair samples so if you smoke or bump, you’re fucked!

If you can make $800 a week at a desk job doing very little I say go for it. But don’t let Mistero fool you. They don’t work too hard there. :lol:

I worked at Delphi. Yes the money is nice but man I was going crazy because its such a boring job and not challenging at all. Its the same shit everyday. BORINGGGGGGG. It takes the right person to do the job. If I was making what they used to make I may still be there.

This past week will be my best ever there.Should be roughly $3,100 gross and can’t wait to see what Uncle sammy takes out of it.  
It isn’t really that bad of a job and if you get decent people to work with it is actually pretty decent.  
I’m a truck driver(FORK) which to me is an awesome job.If you want to stop and talk to your buddy for 20 mins.,as long everything is stocked you’re fine.Alot more freedom and not tied to the line.
