How INSTANT NOODLES Are Made in Factories | 1 BILLION NOODLES EVERY YEAR!

​nah, we value effecent machines, not dumb laborers @@Zesmas

[@DDDD-qj5gg]

@@Zesmas Factory jobs are awful. I get what you are saying though. It does give someone a job but, if you've never worked in one it is absolutely mind numbing doing the same simple thing all day every day. At least for me it was unbelievably depressing after a year doing it....Maybe some people enjoy that though.

[@weirdshibainu]

Right? I think it takes a different breed of engineer to have a company hand you a product and say "build me a factory to make millions of these with good quality, safely, and at a good price"

[@weirdshibainu]

@@DDDD-qj5ggReally depends not on the factory, but on the company. I worked in manufacturing and the company I worked for would pay for your college classes ( you paid for books) as long as you received a "C'" in every class. I got a 4 year degree for the cost of books and a lot of hard work. Yes, factory work can be boring, but really most jobs are and while you do have co-workers, almost every one I know that has a job interacting with the public really hates their job.

[@vladimirpoutine7522]

I would always add a fried egg and some type of a spicy hot sauce for flavor. I'd typically only use a quarter of the seasoning packet due to the amount of sodium.

It really reminded myself of the workmanship they put into it. I am fortunate to be born and raised by loving parents, even if it's not perfect. They did their best. As you did your best in making this video information to the public. For what's worth. Thank you sir/ma'am. :3
