Well they are moving to Mexico, China and elsewhere. In the US they are going away, just
as the white house orchestrated it! By the way $14/hr is better than many college grads earn.
It's not a accident, Ross Perot predicted this years ago and Hillary called him a kook.

Whoever said factory jobs aren't going away is wrong. Your right they are and I must say that Ross Perot would of made a good President. Much better than G.W. Bush.
The factory jobs today require education and advanced training. They are not the "turn-a-bolt" jobs of the past. Those rote rank and file jobs have been long since automated. There is no way manufacturing could employee the same amount of people in 2016 as it did in early 20th century.

Actually if you work in food processing you can get a job there with no extended education.

One more thing you can actually can get a factory job in other industries besides food processing without extended education. Textiles and plastics would be some examples.

Yes, Nabisco has a plant in Mexico, go apply and see if they hire you. Obama made this happen.
I knew that and I am going to start boycotting Oreos and other Nabisco products as well because of that. I remember in one post on this thread that companies that outsource should be punished and companies that build here and make their products here in the States should be rewarded. For example, Mondelez, the parent company of Nabisco, should be punished, and Leaf Brands, which makes Hydrox cookies should be rewarded. And my advice to you is to buy Hydrox instead of Oreos.

Actually, I have seen food processing jobs that require Spanish. It's a safety issue to be working with knives and mechanized equipment and be able to communicate with others, so when the majority of workers speak only Spanish the new hires must also.
