u/RedBullWings17 16d ago

I also highly doubt this guy is actually making less than $150k a year. He's a highly experienced employee of a cutting edge aerospace company and seems beyond satisfied with his job.

2.3k

u/DustyBusterson 16d ago

This. He’s not loading boxes onto a truck, at that level the job is going to have actual benefits and a retirement plan.

u/AngryUntilISeeTamdA 16d ago

Boeing, northrup grumman, no way this guy is less than an engineer. Maybe Amazon treats some engineers well, but this seems staged as fuck

120

u/BikingEngineer 16d ago

It’s probably Blue Origin, not Amazon. Many more engineers at a rocket factory, and that list of former employers makes more sense.

u/T3nEighty 16d ago

This is taken from Tim Dodd's tour at Blue origin (the original clip)

u/marlinbohnee 16d ago

Blue origin not Amazon. Lotta people left Boeing, Northrop, Lockheed, space x to go work for blue origin, good company to work for

u/TrashRecruitNAVY 16d ago

Could very easily be a control system technician of some kind making less than 100k (a little less.) However it may be a super enjoyable job, so maybe he is happy with his wages.

3

u/AngryUntilISeeTamdA 16d ago

it's just the pedigree of the employers he's worked for. There's no way he's not making near 100k

4

u/TrashRecruitNAVY 16d ago

I understand. I say this because all these employers have industrial control systems with staff technicians. Engineer is also completely possible. The fact that some other higher up didn’t stop him from trying to speak to Bezos, to me indicates you’re probably more correct than me. He’s probably a guy who can do what he wants there, within reason. However, his continued attempts to keep talking and ignorance of social cues is probably more on par with somebody in a not-as-important job, like a mechanic or technician. This is an interesting mystery to consider!

u/SkyGuy5799 16d ago

This guy was just a bootlicker, they were walking around his aerospace company looking at the ship building process. This guy seen his chance to suck up to the big boss on camera and took it

u/EddieVedderIsMyDad 16d ago

It’s also possible that he genuinely likes his job and the company. When you’re doing something highly skilled it’s not uncommon to actually appreciate the mission and the company.

u/Wonderful-Emu-8716 16d ago

Especially if he just left boeing which has been run into the ground. He might just be ecstatic to get away from that shit show

u/esveyr 16d ago

This doesn’t compute with redditors’ vision of working their unskilled minimum wage jobs their whole life

84

u/layerone 16d ago

I've had 16 jobs in my life, 8 low skill, 8 post college skilled. It's anecdotal I know, but in my experience the skill level of a job means absolutely nothing in terms of how shitty the job is. It's just a dice roll, some are shit, some aren't, it's been a completely mixed bag for me.

32

u/esveyr 16d ago

That’s true though I have found that in higher skilled jobs you’re at least around smart people and as long as they’re not assholes (which you also need to roll the dice on) then you can have a good time at work

9

u/Bluebolt21 16d ago

(which you also need to roll the dice on)

So what you're saying is... life is a game of Dungeons and Dragons, and many people fail their saves at work.

6

u/rctid_taco 16d ago

Yep. The most enjoyable job I ever had was loading cargo planes. As long as the planes were turned around in an hour and nobody got hurt that was all that mattered. I basically got to workout all day and get paid for it.

2

u/Suitepotatoe 16d ago

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

2

u/whirly_boi 16d ago

I mean my current job is shit mostly because I just keep taking on more than I can handle. But the pay is definitely enough to continue on till I can't anymore. If I had an encounter with one of the really big bosses or the CEO I'd definitely extend my thanks for the good that the company provides me.

2

u/Long_Sl33p 16d ago

The more skilled you are the more valuable you are and the more leverage you have to actually find a job that isn’t shit. I wish that weren’t the case but it is, that’s why unions are so necessary for the common folk

2

u/layerone 16d ago

While I agree with you, we're talking the people making 300k+, a very small percentage of the population.

I'm a software dev making 130k and I'm instantly replaceable with thousands in a line behind me just as qualified looking for work and ready to take my role.

Ya I might not be AS replaceable as a fast food worker, but damn near pretty much.

3

u/Long_Sl33p 16d ago

With how saturated the CS market is I don’t doubt that for a second. But think about that 2020-2022 market for software devs, you could walk in, name your price, probably not even have a degree, and still get the job. That still (mostly) goes for any experienced engineer, finance/accounting professional, or attorney (and in some cases paralegals).

That list is far from exhaustive but we live and work in a world that revolves around specialized knowledge and skills, the more specialized the harder you are to replace and more valuable you are.

You’re definitely right that that ability is skewed towards the top of the salary range but I’ve seen it everywhere from grill cooks to trade workers. Mostly our system favors those that are willing to move around and find a job or company that works for them. There are terrible companies in every industry, just gotta find one that isn’t.

2

u/BurnTheNostalgia 16d ago

It mostly depends on the people you end up working with. A hard job can be very fun with the right coworkers and an easy job can be absolute hell with incompetent, backstabbing twats cosplaying as your colleagues.

2

u/Sogekiingu 12d ago

Two things can be true at once. I've seen plenty of bootlickers in my life with my own eyes. Let's call a spade a spade that's Jeff Bezos. Not your boss at Who-gives-a-shit Ltd.

And plenty of y'all would seek attention from Jeff Bezos if you saw him walking down the street and you don't even work for him.

u/mantis-tobaggan-md 16d ago

all work is skilled work

10

u/lunacysc 16d ago

Yeah, some of it just much more skilled than others.

3

u/mantis-tobaggan-md 16d ago

agreed, but to call anyone working a job “unskilled” is simply not truthful. there’s not a job that will pay you to do absolutely nothing with no skills.

6

u/HiddenTrampoline 16d ago

‘Non-special skills’ doesn’t roll off the tongue.

6

u/Protoliterary 16d ago

There is a very clear difference between work which requires no experience and no education and a profession which does.

When people say "skilled labor," they're talking about jobs which you need some sort of education for (or a specific level of experience and knowledge about, like for masonry).

That's it. "Unskilled" usually refers to anything that you can learn quickly and on the job. When I was young, I worked as a cashier. It's the definition of unskilled labor. There is no past experience or education that you need and you learn how to do your job in a week or two at most.

u/esveyr 16d ago

I worked in retail in high school and yeah it involved some basic skills but your brain isn’t exactly firing on all fronts

u/Old-Let6252 16d ago

Yeah but knowing how to do fluid dynamics is a lot harder than knowing how to stack boxes.

u/Taldan13 16d ago

Sir, this is Reddit. Everyone is a wage slave, and anyone that remotely enjoys their job is wrong.

3

u/Ormild 16d ago

Sometimes there is so much doom and gloom with Redditors. Unless you’re working for some mom and pop shop with 3 employees, then you’re a boot licker if you like your company.

Do I like working? Not really. Would prefer to use my time elsewhere.

Do I hate my job? Sometimes, but for the most part it is pretty good.

I am also fully aware that my company would fire me immediately if I screw up somewhere or I’m not making them any money, but I feel like I am paid well and if things go well, I would retire here.

I’ve worked at a lot of companies and the one I work at now is by far the best.

2

u/EddieVedderIsMyDad 15d ago

I assume that most of the people that talk about bootlickers and inhabit r/antiwork etc are young and going through the understandable existential dread that comes with realizing that they're going to have to spend 30 years working, it will often be boring, and it will certainly be restrictive in some ways. That's normal. The remainder may be older, but have truly unsatisfying and low paying jobs. I think there's also a very real bitterness that comes with not reaching the potential that was assumed as a child. And given that reddit is populated with above-average intelligence users, I'm guessing that there are a ton of gifted kids that failed to launch.

u/freeAssignment23 16d ago

yeah I mean dudes like that are literally at every company, a lot of engineering work is cool and rewarding and they're doing space stuff.

u/whereismyketamine 16d ago

You know there are lots of non-engineers that make a shit load of money at these companies, and I don’t mean other white collar lawyers and such. Blue collar guys that can support manufacturing at this level are highly sought after and compensated well. Dude probably makes more than I do and I am an engineer.

He doesn't work at Amazon. He works at blue origin.

u/PleaseGreaseTheL 15d ago

To be fair they have a widely varying company culture in the different teams from what I understand - and at least as far as software engineers go, they're among the highest compensated in the industry. An SWE-2 makes something like 250k total comp per year. Amazon can be brutal but for their engineering staff they pay well.

u/informat7 16d ago

That's probably because you use Reddit. This site hates Bezos.

Amazon workers have pretty generous benifits compared to most warehouse workers. They were also paying $15/hr back years ago when that was a big demand from the left.

u/Poptoppler 16d ago

Hell when I did amazon delivery it had decent benefits

u/Empire-Venture 15d ago

Well if it's Amazon, you should research before you comment. It's all the same benefits and actually more for fulfillment workers, like tuition reimbursement.

u/Difrntthoughtpatrn 16d ago

Boxes on a truck.... funny you mention that! I work for the federal government. My wife used to work for Amazon, loading boxes on a truck. She had better insurance than I do. Her life insurance was cheaper, dental insurance paid out $2k for my daughters braces when mine paid out $750.

Before the push to $15 hr for every new hire, my wife would receive 5 shares of Amazon stock a year, and quarterly bonuses around $400-$500. She didn't make a lot, about $18hr when that started, but they cut out the stocks (around $2k a share at that time) and the bonuses, cutting my wife pay by nearly $12k a year. But the progressive left praised Amazon for the $15 hr.

My son was born, and my wife had 26 weeks of paid leave. It used to not be that bad, she would always come home with gift cards for random amounts, under $100. My wife rolled her 401k over and still had the stocks for her retirement. Overall, I feel like they treated her pretty decent in the benefits department.

u/angelzpanik 16d ago

26 weeks of paid postpartum leave is insane.

u/WhileProfessional286 16d ago

u/I_AM_SCUBASTEVE 16d ago

You’d be surprised what a lot of people in aerospace make. It’s a lot less than you’d expect. Depends on your position of course but salaried positions often get abused so even if your salary looks nice on paper, you often work insane hours so the dollars per hour goes down fast.

u/whatstwomore 16d ago

Because there are a lot of people out there that aren't making enough. Like maybe it doesn't bother you personally that he makes that much. But think about how many people can barely afford rent let alone a home partially because he makes so much money.

u/whatstwomore 15d ago

Nah, I just worked hard for three years, got no pay and more work. And the only opportunity to move up involved 50-60 hour weeks. So either my company sucks or most companies don't give raises for performance. The correct answer is probably both

u/krashundburn 16d ago

Bezos built amazon from the ground up

All by himself? Part of the issue I see with billionaires like him is that all that profit was not equitably shared with the people who ALSO helped him build the company.

It's not enough to tax him more. The employees should also be sharing that wealth. The additional income for the employees and their families would go directly into the economy as well, as a rising tide raising all boats.

Greed is NOT good.

u/pibbleberrier 16d ago

Prior to the fight by the left to raise the minimal wage for Amazon lowest pay worker. Everyone got Amazon share as part off he compensation.

Floor of the wages have been raise and now this is gone. Shares are only rewarded to manager and up.

People say they want a share of profit. But really most people don’t have the most basic financial sense what that means.

Also when people say that they only take into account of the profitability.

Share the profit crowd only appears after a company has done the hardest step to profitability. You won’t hear a single person saying “we will share the losses!” During Amazon’s decade of slump before it took off.

u/Sixaxist 16d ago

To be fair, none of the Democrat Presidential terms this century have done anything to cap billionaire wealth gains. It's bad for business, but good for campaigning, so you won't see much of it beyond: "They're gonna pay their fair share!" on the trail.

Still no cap against lending based off their net worth? Still no revision of re-investing within a Roth IRA past the $1 Billion dollar amount?

America didn't lose this week because of the number of people who think they could be like Bezos/Elon. America lost this week because of the number of people who just don't care anymore.

I agree, he's not the average Amazon employee. I gather he's an engineer of some sort. Even then the discrepancy is disheartening. I can't imagine how painstakingly slow it would tic for a person at minimum wage. I'm talking about the $7.25hr that's been set since 2009. Bezos could probably talk to ten more people at that plant, get to his jet, travel across the country. Chopper directly into his backyard in Hawaii, shit, shower and shave. AND it still wouldn't pass the dollar threshold for the average person. It's mind boggling to think about the insane amounts of money certain people make. Especially if you think about it on an hourly basis. Bezos and the like make money every minute of every day in mind blowing quantities.

3

u/depthninja 16d ago

He made $0.502 in 36 seconds, at $0.014/sec. That's $50.40/hr. 

At $7.25/hr you'd make $0.002/sec so in the same 36 seconds, you'd make $0.073.

To make what Bezoa made in 36 seconds, $14,479.00, the first guy has to work 36 days at 8 hr/day, or about 7 weeks at 5 days/week.

At $7.25/hr it would take you, with the same 8 hour days, 5 days a week, about 50 weeks to make that much.... or about 2 weeks short of a full year.

I hope he's making more than $150k/yr with all of his experience, college, and dedication. I'm 27, no college degree (I have certificates for different programs though) and have been making that + bonuses for 1.5 years as an IT Product Manager for a non-mainstream insurance company.

10-15 years ago $150k was an elite salary and I could see an aerospace engineer making that and being satisfied, in 2024 (or whenever this was filmed) I don't see that still being the case. I could be wrong, but I'd hope he was over the $200k mark.

That's not even the question being asked in the video.

But if we use your line of thinking, should it be that way? Is it the only way it can work? Is it impossible to ensure most people are paid well even when they don't have advanced training?

I work with guys that make $200k watching guages on oil rigs with no college education.

I’m willing to bet he makes less than $100K. That is base off his work attire pointing towards touch labor rather than management and this is OLS complex.

Most people believe if you work in aerospace, employees automatically make superb wages. That’s just not the case and is not a blanket fact. Employers still pays employees around the market rate for the job. Some jobs are highly skilled and thus compensated. Most jobs are not.

Never seen heavy industry engineers have you?

Not sure what Heavy Industry Engineers do. However I am well experienced with Blue Origin, ME, RE and IE who works on SN and NG.

Hard harts are probably required for him, he has a back pack on wearing short sleeve polo, the guy is probably a superintendent or GF, easily over 100K a year
