Grueling. It involved drilling holes in sheet metal, sawing metal pieces, tightening bolts as well as holding 4' * 10' heavy gauge galvanized steel sheets in place to mold edges in a hydraulic folding machine. As an added bonus you get plenty of scratches from the corners of the metal sheets.

Drilling holes in steel shouldn't be done anymore. Lasers should do that. In fact, your whole job should be done by a robot, because it's dangerous and dull.

If you actually got fired, try to get a tour of the company first before you even do the real interview next time.

I was misled on the tasks I'd be doing and paid a dollar less an hour than what was advertised in the job offer. Some employers are deceitful when hiring new candidates.

That is wild.
