I mix metal as a part of my Manager position at work. This is
extremely dangerous and hot. Also, my work is mentally stressful
when making decisions to hire or fire someone. I have to look at
all aspects of the situation and all points of view before making
my final decision.

I work anywhere from 40-80 hours in any given week.I travel to gather
information or I get into a 'saleman' mode to reqruit companys for more business
for our corporation.Our dress code is basically casual including company
uniforms, unless we have a client meeting, which is planned the day before.

Advice to Jobseekers
In my opinion, if you are interested in seeking a Profession in
this catagory, (Foundry Manager/Metal Fabrication)you would have
to start at the bottom of the ladder and work your way up. Salary
may not be offered in the beginning, and you will need to work as
many hours as possible. If overtime is permitted, work a few
hours over to prove to your superior that you are reliable and
hardworking.Always be ready and willing to learn anything new,
like welding, sandblasting parts, etc.
