Lost my Job!

then legally you could approach the companies they dealt with directly if you felt so inclined. it wouldn't be going outside of any type of union restrictions, and they couldn't sue you for taking their clients if you approached them as an independent outside party. not saying it'd be fun, but more as a "just in case" option

I have thought about it but it would be so much more work than what its worth.

I'm pretty sure there goal wasn't 2 fire you 2 prevent having 2 pay out a weeks vacation when it would set them back 3 months financially lol... that doesn't really ad up... but either way, yeah, sucks, but as you said you can now focus on school and get checks, so.. congrats

As for approaching their clients there is usually some sections in your employment contract that make it illegal for you to act on any knowledge obtained during your time there, this would include things like there clients.

What did you make anyways?

yeh made min wage, um here the products in this website are what i made, i did complete assmebly, pick and place machines soldered the ICs on the boards, and i finished assembly, which means i soldered an average of 4 parts per board, also i encased them glued them and shipped them. my company is paid anywhere from 45-160 dollars per board i send out depending on which board it is. here is the site for the company we subcontract from.
in 1 month i would produce 350 viator usb we get $45 ea, 120 rs232 $54ea, 50 viator bluetooth $60ea, and 100 bullets $160 ea.

there is several steps for each build process.
i went from just testing boards and programming to have 10 times the responsibility, and 2 people under me but was not given a raise. when they put me in mactek the first week i sent 50 Bluetooth and the company (mactek) sent a recommendation letter back for advancement in the company to my company saying they are very pleased with the received product and its the best product they received in the last 6 years. i was amazed so i asked for a raise of course i was denied because of the "low economy" so i kept working 2 months later i received a letter stating how much my department has improved since i took over. so i asked for a raise again and was shot down again for the same fucking reason.

You may want to look into companies that make amps and dacs for Audiophiles as the work is very similar and quality control is very important.

I use to do basically your exact job solar, pick and place machines, tons of soldering big parts and some so small u gota use microscopes. The job absolutely blew. I used to get headaches from soldering so much, and it got to the point that it was happening every day. Although they did pay better the min wage, thats a rip off. I was making 12.50/hr there.
