Yeah, It gets pretty rough heat wise in factories. They make us keep bottled water with us at all times. There 40 cents in the factory and if you don't have it they will give you 40 cents. Plus the cafeteria is open at all times so you can allways have a hot bite to eat if you need it so you don't pass out. The work isn't as hard as I was expecting.

Ah, we only get 3 breaks, so our "Cafeteria" (aka Break Room, which is not ANY cooler) is only open 3 times during our 8-9 hour shifts. We aren't charged for our water bottles though, they gave us re-usable water bottles that have our company logo on it and some other stupid slogan. We are allowed to fill those up at any time.

Aah. We have three Designated 'Breaks' and an actual 30 minute Lunch break. But since they switched the schedule around they made it where the cafeteria is open constantly, for like a sandwhich or something small like that. The water is cheap, But I would prefer the re-fillable kind like yours lol. The people were actually pretty nice, except for one guy, though he did have an excuse. He was working on a machine where the plate gets hot and you slide the plate to the end. Well, it gets up to abouty 300 degrees and he slid the plate, but he laid his arm on it on accident, so the plate slid and took most of his skin with it.

What type of factory do you work at? If I were you, I'd bring in my own water bottle (Like the type I have at my work, at Walmart I'm sure they're like a dollar or something.) and then just fill it up at the drinking fountain. (Or some sort of water faucet)

That is a good price, though if you add it up over time.. In a day you drink what, like 2-4 bottles? We'll go with 2 to give you the benefit of the doubt. Anyway, 2 x $0.40 = $0.80. Working 5 days a week, 0.80 x 5 = $4.00 .. 4 weeks in a month = $16 dollars and 12 months in a year, $16 x 12 = $192 a year.. which isn't THAT bad honestly, but if you just bought one reusable water bottle for a buck, then you'd be saving 191 dollars.

Just my 2 cents.

Good point, Was thinking about that a moment ago. Hmm, It would be best to do that. 191 dollars is three gallons of gas man!
