Some people have the greatest jobs..

So yesterday we went to 3 factories:  Washing/Dyeing/Finsing plant (this is where we get the overdying done), the shirt making factory and the jeans/jackets/heavy shirts making factory.

This is a laser etcher, etching the design for one of our flashers directly onto the the denim. Scary stuff:
