I've been to a lot of concrete plants throughout my years, but this is by far the most well managed concrete plant i've ever been to. My compliments to the chef, as his special ingredient makes this the tastiest cement I have ever tried. I recommend all cementies to come give it a taste.
This cement factory has changed my life. I grew up in a small neighbourhood without a lot of money for food or other basic necessities. Sometimes, we would have sleep for dinner when money was low. I became used to all of this, it was reality for me. As I grew up, we got a small puppy for my 8th birthday, and he's been eating the small amounts of food that would have usually been mine. Angered and hungry, I set out on a mission. My next 13 years of education, I was being forced to fast by my ever hungry dog. But the grind was worth it. I finished school, got hired at this factory, and am now an official cement taste tester. I will never be hungry again.
I have gone by this place once a year on the train as I make my annual meetings in Toronto. I've seen this place but have never knew the plant name or anything about it. I'm so happy that I have found it on Google Maps. It's an amazing place to look at from the railway.
The people are great to work with. They make the best tasting cement dust in the region. It's all you can eat too!
