real problems at fab8

I want to talk about the real problems at fab8. Not fake ones like understaffing, poor management or low pay that the serial complainers here post.

So you're probably wondering what the real problems are. Well, here:

  • too much microwaved fish. Imagine having a desk near the nooks or breakrooms?
  • too many pickup trucks in the parking lot. Are people going to their construction jobs after work?
  • no beds! nowhere to crash comfortably after working 20 hours straight

@9idf how does it feel knowing your red wave was more of a red stain?

@9wfl are you new to the internet? there's no indication that person is the OP. Rich of you to call someone an uneducated goon

Wait, so original poster hates pickup trucks and mentions their disdain for gas-guzzlers, and then mocks another for supposedly driving a Prius? Definitely sounds like an uneducated goon.

The author of this thread is jealous they can’t afford a pickup truck and could only afford a Honda Fit, because their bachelor’s in 17th Century Gender Fluidity could only yield a job as a Cafe dishwasher.

Elevator button pushing actually. It’s a pretty sweet gig and I make darn good money doing it. On your failing company’s dime no less. Not to mention I’m the best elevator operator in the northeast. How’s about them apples? Maybe you should go back to your cave and let the adults talk, instead of complaining about green vest and bathrooms and pickup trucks in the parking lot. Enjoy driving your Prius to work, and playing ping pong tomorrow while your company flails even more. I’ll have a job no matter what happens. You?

Did you get your degree in ladder guarding, or cart pushing? Can you go back to school for an advanced degree in hard hat sticker application? Now go pack your gigantic lunch box and get ready for another day of doing nothing at "work." 🤡

I guess using some stupid clown emoji makes you classy. Your ilk is the reason GF is failing. We don’t make wafers, but we Make.It.Possible. Real class is appreciating the backbone of the biggest and best fab in the industry, which was built by the brightest and best the unions have to offer. We built those bathrooms, and put in those extra supports underneath, and we’ll use them as break rooms whenever we want. Deal with it!

Wow, you're a class act. Keep up voting yourself Einstein. You certainly have all the GF folks jealous of your exclusive brotherhood. Such a strict selection process to join, you need a pulse, and the ability to pay dues. 🤡

I’m not upvoting anything. What are you some kind of tech nerd who can look at source code or something? Typical GF worker who thinks they know everything. Those upvotes for me and downvotes for you are coming from proud blue collar trades folk who bust their tails every day and then have to plead with their overlords to have a decent place to take a dump. Sitting there thinking you’re better than us. You should be ashamed. Go back to Shartlesville or wherever you are from. Union for life!!!

Up voting yourself huh? You're actually bragging about building the most poorly constructed fab ever built? One of the reasons we can't be sold is the buyer would have to completely revamp the whole facility. And you're proud of this work? Shouldn't you be out smoking or hiding in our bathrooms? 🤡

I drive a truck because I live in the middle of nowhere and need it to load wood and tools. Sorry my Masters in electrical engineering isn't plastered in my Ford

What is your issue with the trades guys? They are the ones who built this place and keep it humming like a well oiled machine. I will gladly put up with neon green vests and foul odors so long as they keep up the good work. Show some respect.

There were promises of larger parking spaces, but you know how this works… motorcycles and compact cars will just take them anyways.

I’m a GF employee and drive a truck. So I’m only supposed to have one if I work construction?

the trades guys are on site installing new tools. They do seem to cause a lot of alarms while doing it.

Wait until it's colder out and we'll have to wait in line behind the trades guys to use the restrooms. Why are there so many of them on-site, and what do they actually do, besides purposely break things and charge double to repair it?

@OP I know you're being facetious, but the pickup trucks are gonna get someone hurt one of these days.

The parking spots just aren't made for them. They stick out at least 2-3 feet making it dangerous for any car pulling out of their spot next to one with a larger blind spot. Then there are the ones that park next to and encroach on the walking lanes in the middle of the front lots. And finally the ones that are backed into spots next to sidewalks and take up half of the sidewalk, or more if they have a towing hitch.

And I think the spirit of your post of people driving gas guzzlers unnecessarily, penalize them for that and create oversized vehicle parking in the back lots somewhere.

The pickup trucks belong to the 6000 trades guys in neon green attire who hang out in our bathrooms all day; or randomly walk around in groups doing absolutely nothing.
