Got me again, now that you mention it guys in my plant had no shoes and had to walk miles in the snow to get to work or at least I heard that!
If and/or when you get laid off check out Titusville, Fla little factory down there called NASA I heard they are looking
for a few good rocket scientist such as yourself, and maybe apply for the astronaut position as I hear the lack of
gravity helps those without a spine.
