A childhood friend of mine has made a cottage industry in the tool and die business he owns by fixing what the Chinese have screwed up.
I've had several offers to work for 18-25 bucks an hour in the last five months of job searches. I can't take that kind of a hit in my income at the moment. When and if I get to the end of the road as far as benefits, I'll do what's necessary but for the time being, I'm not going to work for less than I was making.
