Whew!  I just got back from my first day at the factory!  That is hard work!
That does sound like a hard job.. but at least you can't take interest in the face that you're doing something that's been done for years, since the industrial revolution!
Has it always been this hard?  My back is killing me!
Well... children used to have to work in factories, so I suppose it could be worse! More dangerous, too. Less safety codes. Earlier factories had small amounts of machinery, one or two spinning "mules," and were smaller and called glorified workshops.
Wow!  Well the factory I'm working at has a ton of really huge machinery!  I hope I don't lose an arm or anything, they look dangerous!
It's possible they are dangerous. Most modern factories have large warehouses or warehouse-like facilities, and they usually have heavy equipment for assembly line production. So, you have to make sure you keep track of safety codes and be aware of surroundings.
I'm on the assembly line and man does it move fast!  I can barely keep up!
Some factories also work with making discrete products/some type of material that is continuously produced with things like chemical, pulp/paper, or refined oil, so you have to be aware of the materials you're working with in order to not get sick from them.
Fortunately we get a lot of breaks, and one of these times I might just walk out the door and never go back!
that's good to hear. A lot of the things I mentioned earlier, specifically regarding making/working with chemicals.. those are usually called plants. If you ever work with one of those, they usually involve tanks, pressure vessels, chemical reactors, pumps, piping... they're controlled from control rooms, and those are usually outside. So, you have to be aware of what you're doing at all times to make sure you don't cause disasters or put others in harm, or destroy product.
