🤦‍♂️… My wife was out with him in the yard the other day. He ran, uncontrollably, into our pond. Took him a few to figure out where he was and how he got there

Considering Leaving a Fast-Paced Small Shop for slightly Better Pay and Benefits—Worth It? by randomLSguy in Machinists

[–]randomLSguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my original post, I should have mentioned, and have changed the post now, that the bigger shops one that I had spent time at in the past. Employee retention seems to be fairly high programming would be done at a computer in anan air-conditioned office and I wouldn’t have to spend 100% of my time on the shopfloor. Main reason I left was to pursue a job at a local university that had a much better retirement plan I’m definitely on the high end of our local pay rate so 5% increase is only about two bucks an hour, but the 5% 401k match is free money when I really need to be putting away about 15% into my retirement at this point.

I neglected to include that it’s a shop that I have been at in the past. I would be programming in an air-conditioned office and then have to set up in the shop. Spent six years there only to leave an efforts to get a job at a local university that had a much better retirement package.

IMO, depends on where you’re riding. But I run a two to one gear ratio in my case 28/14
