Shades of 9/11 only a whole lot worse. For those who lived thru it.

I dont remember a whole lot about that time. 7th grade. So for me this is the first real serious thing Ive been able to experience as a adult

There's always a first time. Your young just buckle up and watch everything go away. As I say "I may grow old but I refuse to grow up". Everyone at work will have to wait a while till I'm back and go around yelling "Wheeeeeeeeee". One guy there say's no whee and I say wee wee on you.

I am only 63 and have not experienced any of that.

Everyone else.. I'm stuck at home I'm bored.
Me.. I'm READY. Submarine life prepared me for this.
My boss.. I'm gonna need you to come in EXTRA.


We're making the steel used in food cans.
Apparently, that's a big thing now.
So, Yeah for Campbells Soup.
I guess.


Side note. We're pouring a slab 9 inches thick, 48 inches wide, at about 60 inches a minute. Been pouring this slab several days.
THAT'S A LOT OF CANS.

Plastic does not have the shelf life of metal cans.

 

[jedi]

Why does it have to be soup cans?
Why no #10 garner mountain cans.

Now go to work larry!
Millions on welfare depend on you PLUS soon enough the rest of us that will get da 'free' $$$ will depend on you as well

So what is everyone gonna do with their 1k?

 

[actaeon277]

Plastic soup containers are convenient for the microwave.
But look at $ per ounce of soup.
You pay a LOT for that convenience.

Also, the metal is more recycleable.

 

[CTC B4Z]

Odd. My source actually works at GW... Why would he tell me that

 

[jedi]

Plastic in microwave = cancer.
Canned soup = high salt content

Yep, don't microwave plastic, and for God's sake, don't microwave styrofoam.

 

[actaeon277]

We were cutting back on D&I steel (steel used in cans) because the new exotics for automotive safety cages is much more profitable, and the smaller Mills have a harder time making.

But, the pencil pushers always make the assumption that a trend will continue forever.
It never does.

Right now, 2 Caster can handle the automotive stuff easily. Orders are down.
That frees us up for D&I. It's still more profitable than the lower grades.

 

[actaeon277]

Also, you could be thinking of the rolling mill.
We no longer finish the product.
But we make the metal, which is then sold to someone else to "finish" the product.

 

[chef larry]

Okay Jedi turn off the snow.

 

[Ballstater98]

Snow? It's 40° over here.

I saw you in that GEICO commercial.

That's the one and most people think I look like the chef from The Muppet's.
