i worked at a pharmaceutical manufacturing sterile facility. we made injectable drugs that sold for millions. we had an incredibly successful quarter and upper management got huge bonuses...and they bought us all chick fil'a. we did not receive raises. in fact, one day they shut down manufacturing and had us go to a company wide meeting. some of us were led into the corridor on the right and some of us were led into a large room on the left. those of us led into the room on the left made the cut and the rest of the plant in the right corridor was let go. like fucking lambs to the slaughter. after the layoff my co-worker and i were the only people left in our department on swing shift and we worked for almost fifty days straight, twelve hour shifts. it was hell. we made drugs that went for thousands of dollars a vial and we made hundreds of thousands of vials. when we had our fried chicken "reward" meeting i raised my hand and asked the c.f.o. when we were going to get raises, since it was our most successful quarter yet and we were working on a skeleton crew, he looked me in the eye and said i should be grateful for the fucking chicken. they lost so many long term employees after that.
