And I'm loving it. Working for a crab and shrimp processing plant. I'm a shaker. I get a tiny anvil and steel rod that I crack open the deformed crab that can't be sold whole (missing claws, legs, etc) to get the goodies inside.

9 hour days over and over. Not a second I don't have something to do. Everyone just puts in head phones and gets to work. No micro managing nothing. Everybody works hard and the hours are about to go up to 14 a day 7 days a week.

Shits nutty 40 shakers and about 40 other people packaging, refining, and doing shrimp.

It feels great. Honest days work for an honest days wage. There is no schedule everybody works everyday. But it's not hard everybody wants to be there stacking that overtime. It can be monotonous as I literally stand in the same spot and do the same thing. As does everybody else.

Time flies as there isn't a moment you have nothing to do. Finish 100+ half crabs boom another 100. Alright then let's do this :lol:

And I dunno if we're supposed to but I put one ear in and you never see management. They know we're working hard. No micromanaging it's fucking awesome. Nobody is slacking. Most people are smoking weed in the parking lot on breaks :lol:

Everyone's in there own world just getting shit done.

I've always loved crab but it always sucked getting it out of the shell. I'm getting better every day at hitting just the right spot to get it to crack so you can twist, pull a side off, and smack your hand against the container so the whole piece falls right out.

Claws, legs, and the body meat. The body meat was the hardest for me because you have to get it all. The cute Mexican girl taught me today. "I don't really speak English. Mira(look)"

Watched her do about half my pile as she would point and show me exactly what she was doing. Not a problem anymore. Super helpful people and some of them are fucking ridiculous. 4 foot piles of shells in a semi circle around them. Each part has a most efficient way to do it. It's pretty fun :lol:

and ^ if you read my posts you would know :lol:

But I don't always especially as my phone doesn't have the battery to last 9 hours. I dunno you just zone out. I'm focused on what I'm doing. Learning the anatomy and how to get better at it. About every 2-3 hours they yell Break! Everyone jumps to the place and scrubs our water aprons, boots, gloves. Take it all off, then we're all smoking a cig outside bullshit ting,  grabbing a bite to eat.

15 minutes later were re dressed and grinding it out. Except lunch that's 30. Time actually flies there.

On one hand that sounds like a terrible schedule that would leave me too exhausted to have any quality of life, but on the other, that sounds like it would be a refreshing lifestyle. Gotta say I'm pretty jealous, sounds like a nice contrast to the bullshit, stressful, unpredictable jobs I've been working most of my life. I would definitely draw the line far before 14 hour days 7 days a week though, jesus fucking christ.

Not the sort of thing I would do -due to awful sounding hours- but that does sound like a pretty cool job. I wouldn't mind doing that for like, a month or two probably ha

Ya when we do switch to that I'm going to be like look man I need Sunday off. The owner is chill as fuck and he can't afford to lose anybody. He knows were busting ass. A happy worker is a good worker. Why he doesn't micro manage us. I saw him walk through the production area once today and he was checking on something totally unrelated to us.

And we're all working diligently and hard. We all have one task we do. There isn't a single slacker there as there is no time to slack. Get as much done as possible. We hardly talk as we wear ear plugs and the machinery can be pretty loud.

As can 40 people hitting metal on metal cracking shells constantly. :lol: were there to get our hours and make money. In the zone focused on our task. It's honestly crazy.

I've never heard a single person complain. We're all tired, we'd all rather be doing something else. But we're stacking cash.

That's the plan. I'm fairly certain as when you bring your bucket of body or leg meat to the processor you have to put a tag in it. I'm still random shaker as I'm still pretty new but the people who are straight up killing it I think I over heard they get bonuses for the poundage of what they crank out.

I'm getting better and better. Gonna ask about it when I'm a little more proficient. Today I took it slower just practicing the things people have showed me. Watching them for a second and mirroring. Some of them are just so absurd though.
