Transcription
Penny Herbold: That change in technology really impacted some people. Hot metal - there were a lot of complaints. I wasn’t really involved in that - I wasn’t working in there so I don’t know about that. Cold type - that was mostly fine, until they switched to digital. Wow, one woman, she cried everyday - “I already know this, and now they are changing to that. Why do we have to change? I’m skilled at this! Now I can’t even do that! I can’t!” I had to comfort her and calm her down. There were a few like that. But once they picked it up, they got going and they were fine. Yeah. Some, some people it was really so bad their boss would say okay, and the supervisor would say okay, and allow them to move to another section. Where she felt more comfortable, and she was fine there.
