I work for Duro bag / Novolex...Everytime you use a paper bag my company probably made it as we are the largest supplier in the united states. Biggest accounts are whole foods and Trader joes. I'm a machine mechanic and supervisor.

I feel for you in that department. I was the "Damage Control Petty Officer" which also means Fire Fighter. Working a fire on board ship an explosion knocked me head first into a steel bulk head, end of active duty military career.
I don't blame you for wanting to leave this miserable state. I am 15 miles south west of Chicago, work in the city and with traffic its an hour and a half drive to work.
