New job at work (machinist)

[mrjlr]

I'm a machinist.....35 years
We got a huge contract to make parts for bunker buster bombs.....
This part is 10" OD..... We had to buy a new, bigger lathe...$500,000!
The lathe will pay for itself in 7 months.....
Fun part to make....at least the first few...then I hand it off to operators.

That's super cool to work on some Freedom spreaders.

That's great.
So you help build a product that will blow up in someone's face.
And it's legal.
How cool is that.

That's unconscionable!
$ 500.000 for a lathe!
