i can agree with you on some things but it was reported that Mullaly drove in a new Ford Hybrid. As far as Nardelli is concerned, he did not laugh it off, he said he would work for a $1.00 if they got the bailout/loan money
im almost willing to bet that Nick had very little to do if not nothing to do with us getting a new product. By the way, if Nick is so great then why dont we have a Local Contract yet? How much longer are we going to go before we DO have one. It seems this guy has NO negotiating skills, meaning if he doesnt get what he asks for then the discussions/negotiations are off. We need Jerry in there NOW!! Love him or hate him he is the man for the job.
Maybe Nick was too busy hand picking all of the tft's that get to stay....get rid of all of the ones that know 10 or more jobs and let all of his flunkies stay...real smart there
Mary, thanks once again for the meeting notes. I wonder why the company would want to get rid of tag relief? I know that would help their rebalnce/manpower issues but it would take more hours to make production. Doesnt make sense, not that anything does around here. Also, exactly what kind of work are they trying to add to the group leaders?
im not sure on who the vendor is but check this website out...this is exactly what you're looking for, the only thing is they are either out of business or just not making anymore for now...so DONT order anything from there

good deal!!.....ive heard (indirectly) from Jerry D. that this place will be around for awhile. Also heard from a maintenance guy that they are starting to bid out the job of rebuilding our bodyshop. Im not sure how true that is but if it is in fact true thats some very good news for us.
Wizard, im not sure i understand your statement about Ohio plants? OHAP (econoline) in particular...any news there? new products, buyouts, closing, etc?? Thanks for taking the time to post your inside info!
