      I used to be an engineer at Whirlpool.

      They pay their assembly line workers $17 an hour at their only union plant in the US. It's 30 miles from any major city and the midwestern winters make the two lane roads icy. There are only two of those roads in, both two lanes with trucks on them frequently, and shift change can have thousands of cars on the road. I have seen a mind boggling amount of accidents out there.

      It's also a terrible place to work for other reasons as well. This guy being a good example.
