These chamber of commerce and business group clowns are full of it. Nice that they have some program at a suburban HS near Buffalo, good luck finding a manufacturing job in the real world that pays well. Especially in Upstate, NY.

When applying for a job, more than your motor skills are being judged. That said, reading your posts, I'm not surprised you didn't get hired.

Didn't get hired, where? Nice personal attack, BTW. You've never worked in a manufacturing facility in that area, and it shows.

"judged". Judged by what? Who said anything about "motor skills"?

Like I said:

Fake jobs, fake jobs numbers, etc. An ex-cop who is in charge of the local business group in Rochester. Head of the RTMA never worked a real job in his life. Etc.

Not a recipe for success.

Thousands of manufacturing jobs lost in Rochester in recent years, not a peep out of Duffy.

Not a personal attack at all. I've worked in manufacturing and industrial jobs my whole life. You know your stuff, or you complain. Pure and simple.
