I was working at xxx in Newton, Iowa for almost 5 years. They just up and sent our jobs to Mexico and layed us off. Well that may not seem out of the norm it gets better.Things started to pick up and xxx needed workers in Newton. As soon as the contract expired they called us all back and would not even tell us how much we are working for. We all "about 400+" walked out of the plant after about 2 hours. Then they fired us all . About a week later I got a $8.00 check for my 2 hours of work. I was making $18.00 an hour there now I'm making $9.00 an hour cleaning a school.
