PS If any readers are a foreign car supporter go buy a Toyota, they admitted they knew about the auto problems but sold the cars to the public anyway. Hmmmm, what does that tell ya about what they think of us? And the American people hate Ford humpf!

“But, what the public gets is that any idiot can stand in a line tightening bolts, and Ford workers have gone out of their way to sabotage the product in the past, etc, etc.”

This is actually very FALSE as my husband has trained so many, many people that could NOT hack the job that they would quit before the 1st or 2nd week was up. The job is very hard (demanding) on the body and some of the actual jobs are near to impossible to accomplish with all that needs to be done within a few second. And these where people from all walks of life and some with degrees others with none. That’s why he had to train so many people in so many groups because these new workers “the public” learn very quickly it is not as easy as everyone thinks.

And yeah I imagine what the Chevy workers are thinking Glad to have you stop by.

The argument is that the “executive team” drives profits, not workers.
Of course, that’s only on the executive floor that anyone would say that out loud.

The fact is that the board of directors of any company has to look the management team in the face when they deny bonuses. And, the group is really tiny as compared to the workers.

The auto unions have so much mud on their faces now that it is actually “popular” with the public to deny any bonuses to the workers. Do that, and the public is MORE not LESS likely to buy the product.

It’s a nasty thing to say, but the thuggish behaviors of union officials in the past have made it harder not easier to justify purchasing the product.

I ONLY BUY FORD, so please don’t consider me an enemy for saying this. It has nothing to do with the actual workers.

But, what the public gets is that any idiot can stand in a line tightening bolts, and Ford workers have gone out of their way to sabotage the product in the past, etc, etc.

In other words, when someone comes out of high school, gets in an assembly line after two hours training, and then expects to make $100,000 with overtime that our, the public’s, grandmothers are going to have to pay out of their small teacher’s retirement, that doesn’t go down well with the public.

All this time the executives who bring in a billion dollar profit for an American car company in this climate have got to be considered miracle workers.

The public gives no credit whatsover to the bolt tighteners for this kind of performance. If anything, the unions have made it look like the management must turn a profit despite workers who couldn’t run a business of their own if their lives depended on it.

And, believe me. I am a Ford Lover. So, you can imagine what the Chevy lover thinks of the Ford worker.
