At the frame plant, having reading material at your work station could get you a written reprimand. When the union distributed their newsletter, it was limited to the locker room, the lunchroom, and was only allowed on the plant floor if you were walking through out on your way to clock out.

I have a diagonal scar on my right wrist where some frame members shifted and I tried to catch them...and continued working the line until break, rather than stopping production to seek medical help. I used my own bandana as a bandage until I could access the first-aid stuff on break. [After that night, I switched from wearing the required welding sleeves, to wearing the Kevlar material-handling sleeves...job description be damned, sometimes you have to be practical]. I could've gotten on the radio and called for someone to relieve me, but in the interim we'd have lost some valuable production. And that production is what made my job, and my paycheck, possible.
