My name is Bonnie and I've worked at the Sensata factory for 23 years
Last year Bain Capital bought our company
and we found out that our jobs were going overseas
Bain sent over workers from China to learn our jobs
so that they could replace us
One of the workers that I met that came here from China went by the name of Max
But they all took on American names so that we would be able to pronounce them while we trained them to do our jobs
Max had a family in China, a wife and a little boy that he talked about a lot
and I know that he missed a lot while he was here
Max would ask me, what was next for me after my job left and I would have to tell him that I didn't really know
I'm 52 and it's not easy to start over at this age
With a Romney economy we're looking at basically all the good-paying, well-benefit jobs being outsourced to China
and the jobs that are created are all going to be service jobs that pay minimum wage or less
I'd like to see a time when Max can come here to visit and see all the sights that we have in this country
and other people like him come and visit, but not come here because they're training to take our jobs back to China
