That has to be some intensely hard work. It sounds interesting though.

thats a lot of money though, do you get paid overtime?
Anything over 40 is overtime unless they have you under contract.
Cosmic, is LVI a labor broker or an actual construction company?

You would earn every red cent you earned from that job. $10/hr is going to be for strong backs and weak minds - if you have skills such as being a machine operator, I bet it will be much higher.
And its pretty damn difficult to work 16 hours a day for more than a year. They are going to have a lot of turnover.

I don't know anything about them personally, but this is apparently their website.

I just knew there were people in here that might be interested in it. I am sure there will be a lot more like this one.

Without a doubt they're going to have a nightmare with the turnover. I did 4 months of 7x13 (luckily it was nights as it was over the summer months) and after about month you turn into a zombie.
Whoever LVI is, they better have a shit hot safety and insurance program with all the debris and biological hazards those folks are going to encounter. I can see all the PI lawyers laying in the weeds for this one.

I worked roughly 80hrs/week for almost a year in my first job out of school as a field engineer for Schlumberger. It was 6 months before I got a day off.
It took me several months to slow down after that, you find yourself in perpetual motion all the time. Now I think I'm stuck!

My father worked for Schlumberger for 15 years. He had the same happen to him lol.
