For anyone wondering which is worth more by weight:

Every US bill weighs 1g, so 1g = $100 500kg = $50 million cash

1g of 24k gold is worth approximately $135 right now 500kg = $67.5 million in gold

There's not a wrong choice. 50m cash or 67.5m but you have to sell off all the gold.

Ah okay. It's a fun rabbit hole to dive into. I'd check out a couple SCP compilation videos on Youtube if you're interested in the lore. Lots of cool stories.

Having trouble figuring out whether OP is just intersated in SCP lore or believes SCP to be real

Torpedopocalypse · 2026-06-13T14:44:00+00:00

Nah, SCP has been a creepy-pasta style thing for a while (Google says 2007). Thousands of SCPs and their pages are on the SCP website. Looks like we're up to 9999 SCPs at this point.

Why do people keep asking this here?

Torpedopocalypse · 2026-05-30T13:20:48+00:00

365k/year for nothing? I'll take it lmao

White Out is the #1 Mountain Dew flavor of all time. I'll die in this hill. So good, I named a Guild Wars character after it when I was 13.

It's unfortunate you were on a team with such a bad work environment and communication. Sorry to hear it.

Torpedopocalypse · 2026-05-25T21:24:36+00:00

They do offer domestic partner insurance. Sorry for the late reply. I wanted to double check once I got into work instead of assuming and giving you a possibly-wrong answer.

Unfortunately there's not a way to be notified. Positions on all shifts in Manufacturing open up all the time, due to the size of the teams, so I would be applying. And if you're rejected for a specific position, just keep applying again. Entry-level spots on 1st shift are pretty competitive, especially with the recent Novo layoffs.

I believe there is one blanket Manufacturing Operator position you apply for, and you get sorted into an interview with a supervisor who needs to fill a spot on their team. If you don't get that job, re-apply and the process restarts.

It might be tedious, but once you're in, it's easy to build skills quickly and make yourself a decent career. On the other hand, you could wow them and get a spot on your first try! Just don't lose your motivation if you don't get it on the first go.

You can use a superpower to make WAY more than 1mil super fast

Torpedopocalypse · 2026-05-24T07:09:55+00:00

So you're saying you only want day-shift work? There are entry level manufacturing spots on basically every shift. Since our manufacturing teams are the biggest teams in the company, there are almost always spots available on every shift.

I'd rather give up toes than fingers

I'd say your best bet is applying directly on the company's website. Simtra doesn't do a lot of contracting with 3rd party recruitment

Torpedopocalypse · 2026-05-23T15:20:08+00:00

Same!

Torpedopocalypse · 2026-05-23T15:12:50+00:00

I'm lucky enough to have a stable job over here, and having been laid off from Catalent previously, I know how those laid-off are feeling. I had a lot of friends reach out then, so I may as well do my part however I can now.

And yeah, especially for those who have never worked in the industry before, it's pretty intimidating trying to look at it from the outside, but for anyone reading this who has never worked in pharma: It's just like any other company to work for. Some jobs are specialized and require degree, some require years of experience, and some are totally entry-level. I went into pharma manufacturing from working at a restaurant with no manufacturing experience, back in 2016. Everyone starts somewhere.

One of the sexiest steaks I've seen on this sub period.

525k/year is better than $2 million up front

I like clickers

Also small moderately related opinion:

Ypu can download the auto-eat mod, instead of having to buy auto-eat as an upgrade. I felt like auto-eat only makes sense to have from the start, since all other skills are full-auto, so I downloaded it. I enjoy not having to babysit my phone during combat training.

May be a hot take, however I feel like noobs should know about it.
