Paper making used to be big in this area...Millers Falls...Erving. I had lots of relatives...father...mother...uncles...aunts...gra ndfather...cousins...who worked in them. Sad to say...most are gone now...swallowed up by huge corporations...International Paper. The last of the true locals...Erving Paper...just filed for bankruptcy two weeks ago!!! The future of the local mills is indeed in jeopardy!!!
I hear that. The mill I was laid off from is Smurfit-Stone. They are pretty big, but filed for chapter 11 a little while ago. Hopefully this one turns out better.
good luck tommorrow Mike. I also start my job tommorrow.Im working for a local sand and gravel company on a job in another sand and gravel companys quarry in Plainfield, as a driver. its only driving up and down a haul road 35+ times a day, but its money coming in, and more importantly, experience I can carry over to get another job.
actually, maybe im not starting tommorrow, after a phonecall to the boss.
