Yeah, the chicken plants near us are offering like $20/h and $5k signing bonuses because the job is so shitty and no one wants to work in those conditions.
And this is in an area where $20/h puts you solidly in the middle class.
Years ago, I worked the debone line at a poultry plant owned by (Rhymes with Bison). It was cold, wet, and nasty. You worked one job on the line slicing, cutting, pulling, or scraping the same piece chicken off for 7 hours a day. The first thing HR told you in orientation was "No unions. You so much as say the word 'union' and you're gone."
I made it six months before I just stopped going in.
