Damn I'm a Machinist with only mediocre experience and even I don't get out of bed for less than $28. That shit's skilled labor even if a bunch of yuppie MBA's don't think it takes any skill.

I'm not even a machinist, I kinda wish I took that route. I came in as the lead assembler figuring I could prove my worth and "move up" into something better. Instead I became essential and am stuck lol

Thing is, you're not essential. If you left the company would move on. Maybe you should look elsewhere.
