| If you eat meat then you need the plants no matter where they are in business. they wouldnt hire the illegals if the local people didnt think they were to good to work there but hey if you dont want to work for 16.00 on hr as maintenance do not work there.
Someone said they are going to import cheap labor to replace the illegals is a retarded statement and based on that you have absolutely no idea what goes on there in the hiring and pay practices. Not only do they pay the prevailing wages for that field of work they pay above the going rate. Cargill pays more than National Beef thats for sure.
The work there is very hard to do and most caucasions think they are to good to even apply and work along side the mexicans there when in fact that dont have the nuts and to even handle 1 week of that labor.
This isnt the first time the plant has flushed out the ILLEGALS from the workforce and it wont be last.
In the 80s it was the asians who were ruining this town and working at the plants taking OUR JOBS (the same jobs most of oyu wouldnt even think about doing remember you were to good to apply) then the 90s it was mexicans were taking our jobs (the same ones you were to good to apply for) in the 2000s it has been the mexicans hating the fact that the guatamaleans (sp) were taking their jobs and the caucasions were complaining that the mexicans are taking their jobs and the cycle is not ending there now the rumor is PRs are replacing the illegals and taking their jobs and now it it just another race of people for the ones who think they are to good to apply and work there but they do eat meat (the same meat that comes from the plant that they are complaining about) to complain about.
If most ppl in this town would apply and stay there at the plant they wouldnt be hiring outside the states and looking for workers outside the town to work there and do the jobs every single one of us are capable of doing. Illegal or not they apply and do the work there and help put food on your table. The state the gov. and city all make money off what ever name they are using they still get taxed regardless of what name they bought to work there so we are losing money off them working in Dodge City.
For the record im white and work there 91-93 as a chuck boner 2001-04 as maintenance (which for the record also they only hire english speaking workers for that job because they have an english only rule on the radio)
Like it or not they do the DIRTY work most of you look down on and wont do.  |
