I worked for that manufacturing company for seven years. Sometimes I concider going back but it's really a younger person's job. I don't think I could put in the hours they require anymore, nor could I put in the physcial labor with the added 80 lbs I've put on since I left.
The owner was in the building for a short time today, I was expecting a call to the office but it never came. I found out later that my boss was out of the building while he was there running errands.
So either she calmed down and realized that I didn't break any rules, she's waiting to find out if he puts in his notice, or as someone mentioned, the owner realizes that he cannot compete with companies that offer benefits, stable work hours (I for example worked 2 days last week, 3 this week and 6 next week), and real wages.
I thought about facing this head on and asking her how the owner reacted, but I decided that I'll just wait and see.
