Pensioner factory
It does have metal content....
I just saw a documentary called "pensioner factory" about a business in the US where "the average age of its employees is a staggering 74 years. The staff consists of 35 pensioners aged between 75 and 96." The company is called vita needle and they make hyperdermic needles and some small stainless parts. I found it interesting & thought maybe some of you guys would too. Video of their capabilities off their website: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPwjZ...layer_embedded http://www.vitaneedle.com/ Looks like the whole doco is he http://www.cultureunplugged.com/play...ensioners-Inc- |

The one that retired at 84 started working for my company when she was 14 for a total of 70 years on the job. |

Because only the "pensioners" are between 75 and 96. The rest of the employees, the non-pensioners, are younger than 75. The scariest thing is, there WILL be a test! -- Richard Lamb |
