Default Did you work in a 'sewing' factory in your hometown? Tell us a story.

'Back in the day', when all children had chores & worked for the family...I worked at my parents Garage & Gas station. I really HATED 'finding' where the gas tank was to give gas, then cleaning the windshield, & lots of times checking oil!! I couldn't wait til I was 16 & could get a job in the 'factory'.
Well, I made lots of lifetime friends, had support from co-workers, no matter what I went thru, and worked my way up to management. I actually enjoyed my job and love sewing today! I bought a car, raised a family, made payments on a home..all with my factory check...and then they were gone!

BUT, I loved working in that factory, and those days are very special to me. 'Back in the day'.
