I read the first paragraph or so then came to the comments. But I had to go back. Holy shit, it really has that part about playing Nintendo. Full quote: > “Foundry work has always been filled with immigrants,” says Chris Guthrie, the company president. Once they were Italian, German, and Irish. Since the Bosnians arrived in the mid-1990s, Trace Die Cast has been hiring refugees. “They’re filing the jobs that people who grew up playing Nintendo everyday don’t want. It’s hard and hot.” Refugees now make up half the 400-person workforce, and Guthrie hopes the new Afghans can fill his 80 open positions. So there it is, it's the company president complaining about workers. I grew up playing "Nintendo" (and my job is hard and hot) and it just shows what an out of touch old bastard he is. It's called "video games" not "playing Nintendo." Just like every smart phone isn't an iPhone and every tablet isn't an iPad. > As he walks through the plant, Guthrie complements his workers on their skill with complex engineering software. He asks how their kids are doing in college and tells them this country is lucky to have them. “If people think the American dream is dead,” he says, “come to Trace Die Cast.” I wonder if his workers have college degrees or if the pays them like they do when they're operating their complex engineering software. How lucky for him he has people so desperate for work because they had to leave their warzone shithole of a country and doesn't have to pay workers who grew up able to afford video games a living wage so that they too can afford to provide video games to their children. Because those kids sure as shit aren't getting free college tuition.
