1. Basically, the work involves transferring and storing chemical solvents. When filling tank trucks, you can take it easy and let the equipment do the work.
1. Following up on the first point under the advantages: filling small drums and containers is very demanding (you have to continuously handle 30 kg loads and stack them on pallets; each production run is at least 100 drums, or roughly 4–6 pallets).
2. There is no concern for employee safety (some metal floors have corroded but are not repaired; worse still, guardrails are not installed).
3. Being splashed by acidic liquids causes permanent staining of clothing (you have to sacrifice 1–3 sets of clothes, and when you get home, wash them separately to avoid contaminating the washing machine).
4. The current on-site staffing consists of only three people: two foreign workers and one local worker.
5. Local workers threaten new hires, saying that if they are not proactive enough, they will suffer the consequences (with a starting salary in the low 30,000s, what is there to act so high and mighty about...? I really don't understand).
6. When there is no work, they assign tasks such as pulling weeds and painting—things unrelated to the position you applied for.
