lol there are times when i'm sorry too.
For the most part though i love what i do.We are a prototype building shop,guys on the floor work with the engineers(or should i say nit wits)designing and building one of a kind machinery and components.The big boys call it outsourcing
No repetitive production machining is done there.Something new every day.
An awful lot of plugs and custom reel repair parts are made during our slow periods,we all love to fish.
As for the shoulder,injuries go with the territory.20 years of locking down lathe chucks and vises coupled with lugging steel will eventually tear something.
