running the machine, it wouldn t be a very satisfying job. if i were only programming, it wouldn t be a very satisfying job. and where i get to do both, i couldn t make myself do anything different. in the assembly line method, you might just have a single person who does a single task all day long, and that s all they do. it s repetitive, it doesn t tax the mind, it s simple work. and really, what you re seeing is that the world is changed. adex received 100 resumes for every job it filled last year. even so, sean and jason had a hard time finding qualified applicants. it s almost like a mini mba to be able to be the high-tech worker on today s factory floor. and it pays like a white color job does. from 50 to as much as $80,000 a year, depending on experience, and job training. unlike an assembly line factory, the employees say they feel empowered. it s hands-on.
