   Where I worked there were several areas of unskilled.  The company had   
   to pay a good wage as the jobs were rotating shifts.  The labor was not   
   hard.  They would bring in about 20 people at a time and at the end of   
   the month it would be lucky if one or two stayed.  There were about 2500   
   jobs in the plant for general workers.  In about 6 years the company   
   went through around 4000 people. Many just could not handle the rotating   
   shifts. You could even take early retirment at 55 if yu had been there   
   for 30 years.  Good pension and most of the medical insurance paid for.
