Quoted from DrJoe:Ha! I'm sure everyone is stocking up on those "mods" already.
1/2 these guys probably already have them on their bookshelves.
Quoted from wesman:Don't you dare break the narrative that wealthy people making a smidge less shouldn't be shouldered by consumers as well as underpaid workers.
Which by the way, minimum wage in NJ is $10 and change, in Illinois it's $8. I'm guessing line workers were paid a couple bucks more before the move.
But.....savings, for the consumers, riiiiiiight???
Minimum wage in Cook County is $12/hr, where they are located
Quoted from wesman:Sounds like they're getting minimum wage then.
https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/new-minimum-wage-rates-continue-to-take-effect-beginning-in-2021/2396562/
"Before the increases over past year, the state's minimum wage rate was $8.25 and $13 in Cook County, containing Chicago. Currently, Chicago's minimum wage is $13.50 per hour for "small employers" and $14 for "large employers."
The city of Chicago is going to $15/hr this year I believe, JJP is just outside city limits.
Quoted from screaminr:Lol , when I read that , this is the first thing I thought of . I would love to get over to Chicago and play the dick head tourist and get my photo taken in front of all the BB landmarks .

The town I live in borders both Joliet and Elwood,IL. I drive past this gas station almost everyday. It’s about 40ft in the air.

You can do the math any which way but $16850 is way too much for any pin imo. I think a lot of people are going to get burned in the future thinking that just because all these other pins go for a lot then any new pin will go for a lot, too.
Those prices are in Australian dollars
Quoted from flynnibus:man.. who couldn't see this derail coming?

Quoted from PinballCharlie:Wait - what? The panel got nerfed? Even though I haven't yet taken delivery, I'm already a little disappointed that I found out after the sale that the SE Hotrails are not individually addressable LEDs.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:He was truly the worst poster in recent memory.
And now all we have are the memories. Of
78.934 posts about how much he hated LZ. Talk about a one-issue voter!
Couldn’t agree more, Boob is pouring one out now.
Quoted from littlecammi:He didn't go home. He received a 14 day thread eject 8 hours ago back in post 1345 of this thread.
And now it’s inactive, meaning he went home
Quoted from JohnTTwo:How many of you guys would enjoy working a week on the line at any PB manufacture?
I know I would sign up if one was close to me. Even take some vacation time to make it happen.
You?
Hahaha, I honestly was thinking of applying, it’d be a blast, the best quality to ever come out of there 
Quoted from rotordave:After a week of that work, you’d never want to see another pinball machine again.

Only one way to find out, it’s a 40 minute commute
Quoted from thechakapakuni:That’s because they’re getting high and doin keg stands in Gary’s office
Caligula would be jealous of Gary’s office, I’m guessing.
Quoted from screaminr:That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen .
I'd definitely go out of my way to get petrol there .
( and yes , I'm easily pleased )
If you do ever make it out this way I’ll take you to Joliet prison where the opening scene was shot, prison is closed and does tours. They really do it up for Halloween.
