Is sad i lost my job at the Washington post because they reduce people at the press run Love the job but like he said have to found something else to work 😢
Hate to hear it shut down. I don't run a web press, or do newspapers or anything of that sort. I'm a pressman on a KBA 162 sheet fed press, but that always wanted to work on a press like that. Very cool.
I feel it too. I was hired by the Watsonville Register-Pajaronian, a small town Pulitzer Prize winning newspaper. I began work on October 29, 1963 in the circulation department and left in November, 1979 to start my own small printing shop. There was something special hearing the hiss of the web running over the rollers and the whole machine seemed alive but it was only a machine.
So sad, I was a printer for 27 years. This was a once proud industry, now decimated by technology. Just to let you guys know, there is life after printing so keep your heads up and find your way into something else. I am now a machinist.
