Default RE: question for ron

I'm an Assistant Machine Operator for a major paper company. The title is fancier than the job but the pay is OK. I work on 3 machines, one that puts a wax coating on paperboard, another that puts a poly coating on and another is a roll rewinder to repair defective rolls. The end products are the backing boards that you find in packages of Bacon. We also do other things like foil laminations. Across the street we make cereal boxes for General Mills and we make the "Roni" cartons, Rice-A-Roni and Pasta Roni. We also make our own paperboard, 100% recycled. We used to make Kellogg's cereal boxes and Kraft Macaroni & Cheese cartons. It's unbelievable how many Mac & Cheese cartons that we made there!
