It is of course known that Harper’s Ferry is the seat of a U.S. This morning’s mail may bring us something more definite and reliable, and of course we will add it to this.

Basically don’t put anything out there that you wouldn’t want other to know. The way hours are distributed though, you’re more likely to be sent home early for that instead.Īs an introvert, it’s pretty comfortable because you don’t have to work closely with much of anyone, however, you do have your talkative bunch. Lately they’ve threatened sending people home for wearing masks improperly (such as masks not covering your nose) but I’ve yet to see it actually enforced. Vaccinated or not, this facility requires face masks and the boss normally walks around doing temperature checks in the morning as you work. There are no 30 minute breaks.įloor managers are cool and normally flexible as long as you stay in good communication with them. Anyway, paid 10- 15 minute breaks are every 2 hours or so.

Basically, if they have an office, or have been employed there for 10+ years, they’re full timers. Only upper management gets full time hours and of that bunch there are maybe only 2 on salary. Weekly hours are inconsistent and there’s not much opportunity for growth here. If you have trouble landing/keeping a job that may be a good thing but for those of us who need steady income, not so much. Easy job, obviously dying company Probably the easiest $12/hr you’ll ever make.
