A lot of folks like repeatable, monotonous jobs. They can loose themselves in a trance doing the same thing for hours.
The problem is that American bosses will never hire these kind of people. They can never pass the interview game.
Except you can't just zone away in a factory job. Workers need to pay attention if they don't like injuries. It the job doesn't need much skill, it doesn't necessarily mean it's easy or safe.
