I spent several years in a factory working in close proximity to a row of huge, plastic injection molding machines. The deafening shriek of the hydraulics, the smell of melted plastic and hot hydraulic fluid, the 115 degree air temperature, the 2" deep pool of hydro fluid that surrounded the machines.....all of those things can be gotten used too.
Realizing that your good-paying, benefit providing, blue collar job has departed for territory south of the border, and is never coming back, is the part that required the most adjustment.
Mods, if this qualifies as a political statement, by all means delete this post.
