Almost like the place I work.  People on the outside know more about what is 
going on than the workers at the plant.

It is a very large plant that has about 40 acers under roof and a lot of 
outside space. There used to be about 3000 workers when I first started 
about 30 years ago.  Now we are down to about 500. A coworker fell and broke 
his leg last week.  The news went from the plant somehow to another store 
across town, to someones house, then to a house down the road about 20 miles 
and then back to a cell phone of a person I was working with.  That is how I 
found out about it.
