After a few years in production shops I decided machining would make a better hobby than a career. Those are the people that would like to see child labor come back. Don't let them get to you. They are mentally ill psychopaths, and there's a lot of them out there. They quite often have their place as leaders. Pushing people around is their skillset.
I've found over the years that in any job it's the people you work with, and not the work that counts most. Find yourself a good group of people and leave the place you're at now. A bad boss or even a bad co-worker will ruin your career, don't waste your time if you can help it. Bad people keep you down, good people move you up. It sounds like you might be making a fair wage, but trust me, your top wage won't be much higher as long as you work there. Keep moving until you find a home.
Or you could just show 'em how tough you are and take their abuse. You'll age to be a bitter old man, broke and alone. But tough.
Good luck.
