From what I read the average pay before benefits at JD is a little over $25.00 per hour which was lower than I thought it would be..I retired from a non union Fortune 500 company in 2012..If I was still there today I would currently be making more than a JD employee...However,about 20 years ago my company did away with pensions, profit sharing, health insurance isnt as good as it once was-etc..I think JD made lots of changes in 1997..
We had plenty of lazy people that never got fired..All they wanted is for you to show up and to work safely..About half the work force carried the other half..There were 15 people in my department on 3 shifts...One time I and another guy had a fantastic week putting out 40% of the work for the entire department..One person only completed 3 jobs because they were too busy visiting-etc...Meanwhile Dale and I did 40 jobs between us...Several people didnt like that because it made them look bad and tried to get us in trouble..The dept head stood up for us and said that none of our work ever came back..I dont miss that place because of all the back stabbing but miss some of the people..
The turn over at this plant today is unreal....In the old days once you started there you stayed there and some retired out of there having worked 30-40 years..

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener.
