A strike vote is routine, it happens every 4 years. So why such a fuss & insults? The UAW has not had a strike at Ford since 1976 & the relationship between the Union & Company are actually pretty good. Both side do their press game during contract time. There is'nt going to be a strike even if there were to be some big problems between both sides, everyone knows what's at stake. I guess I'm just used to the every 4 year game. My whole life has been connected to it. ::shrug:::
It does get upsetting to see people insult UAW members though, as my family is 4 generations deep in Ford Motor Company. My Great Grandpa,my grandpa,my Dad & my hubby are good hard working men
who love Ford Motor Company & the UAW. It goes deeper than that for my family, Henry Ford was a childhood friend of my great grandpa, he test drove the model T on the road that ran through our family land.
Alot of the workers have Ford Motor Company running through their veins. There may be some loud mouthed asses in the UAW but that is problem in every walk of life. I've certainly seen evidence of that on this forum. LOL
It's truly disheartening to know that there are people out there who hate my family because we're UAW. We're good people & damn well don't deserve the insults or disdain.
Debating does'nt have to be insulting or does it?
