I woke up sunday morning with a massive hangover.I just binged all night drinking a half a bottle of vodca.This is starting to become pretty common every weekend.The stress at Jeld Wen is getting to me.I feel like I'm under a microscope and management are looking for reasons to write up employees and fire them.I wish I could find a different job.

Jeld Wen was not at all a bad place to work by factory standards. Safety was taken seriously. Management could be a little unreasonable. The employees always knew where they were and what needed to be done as far as orders and even when it came to running out of work. It was our job to keep track. Management didn't always do it's job and rarely knew what had been done and what hadn't. The pay was decent, but when it came to 401k...I found jeld wen lacking. They never contributed to 401k like they said they would. Every penny in my 401k was put there by me and none other. It sounded good on paper, if they'd contributed like promised. After the layoff, and due to the fact that it's nearly impossible to find another job at the moment, I have to withdraw from my measley 401k just to get by.

He thinks his sh*t don't stink.Guess what,because of his leadman status ,his wife who is a poor worker, never got the ax.It is recurring theme at the Hawkins Jeld Wen plant.If your a relitive of the management elite than there is good chance your ass will get saved from the mighty Jeld Wen ax.
