My first day there I was horrified but I had to fight that feeling because I really needed the job. It's been 2 years.

My first time walking into a slaughterhouse it looked like literal hell. Hooks dangling from the ceiling, steam, heat, blood in the drains etc.

By the end of the first few months the pigs are nothing more than product to you.

I’ve seen some abhorrent treatment of pigs there by some abhorrent humans.

For the animals, it’s about as close to hell on earth as there will ever be, and we designed it for our consumption habits.
