a meat packing plant before college, what a hell hole.

Never again, it was by far the worst employment experience of my life. The pay was shitty the working conditions were beyond deplorable and the management damned near psychotic prison guard in nature. I swear, if my line manager had a whip it would have resembled an ancient galley ship more than a modern industry.

Cyril what's his name (line manager) may not know it but I still rate him as the man I despise more than any other person I've ever met.

On the plus side it sure as hell got my grades up in college.
