How is an Oompa Loompa going to get another job in this economy?

But Valentine's Day is coming up!

Oh wait, who would buy their date Hershey's? Ew.

Yeah, it's like anybody can afford to buy an Oompa-loompa now. There's really no reason not to get one. And you can use them as lawn jockeys while they do their Pilates.

Though I admit saying I was working at a fudge packing plant would be an interesting way to start a conversation.

Summer jobs on the Jersey shore?

No, use of the word "plant" would kill any possible interesting conversation

You'd have to call yourself a Professional Fudge Packer, or First Class Fudge Packer, or something like that.

oops. (takes notes) my comedy skills are not so good until after my first beer.

Great headline.

Well Im sure these boomers that have been in their comfortable jobs for years with a high school diploma will show those young punks how easy it is to get a great job with great benefits and little requirements

I DON'T CARE WHO DOES WHAT TO YOUR HERSHEY HIGHWAY

Veruca Salt: Hey, Daddy, *I* want an Oompa Loompa! I want you to get me an Oompa Loompa right away!
Mr. Salt: All right, Veruca, all right. I'll get you one before the day is out.
Veruca Salt: I want an Oompa Loompa now!
Violet Beauregarde: Can it, you nit!

I guess she can get one now on the cheap.

Looks like Hershey found another 200 suckers on student visas to replace them.

I'm currently eating some Lindt und Sprungli Chile dark chocolate, so I'm getting a kick...

I'm pretty sure that what with seniority and all the youngest workers will get laid off first so that would be Gen X'ers, not Boomers, getting laid off. In that area a job at Hersheys is considered a pretty good job so the company had their pick out of a large pool of workers to hire from so I doubt that it's people with "Just a high school diploma" and as I recall they also gave preference to veterans.

So you go on with your ITG act cheering for the loss of work for veterans and people who more than likely do have college level degrees. Yay you!

I'd be entertained if packaging employees had naval ranks.

Welcome to Obama's America.

First time was under Bush. Care to try again?

If my emails are correct, Obama is also responsible for things that happened before he took office.

Welcome to Obama's America.

It's no great loss. Hersey doesn't make chocolate. They make chocolate resembling wax
