Ha ha. 97%, yeah that's a real nailbiter. That's quite a story though. What a bunch of dummies. $22.48 an hour plus benefits sounds pretty good for a slaughterhouse gig. I mean no offense, but what kind of qualifications do you need to work in a slaughterhouse? Grade 6 and your own rubber boots?
Would you want to work in a slaughterhouse for the rest of your life @22.48 /hr? It might not be a job requiring a lot of education, it isn't exactly the most pleasant place to work.

The company said it is considering moving operations to Red Deer, Alta.

Now I might be misreading things here but with the Alberta boom going on right now, wouldn't they have to pay a pretty penny to get people when they're competing with the oil companies for workers?
