  1. Tranfer options. The ability to sign up for an available opening at other Ford locations outside of zone. No transfer money included and get in-plant seniority date upon arrival. Example: I live in Missouri and a hardship requires me to be in Michigan. I could sign a “available transfer opening’. If and when a spot opens, I receive a start date and new seniority date in that facility. That’s all.
  2. Have 94, I’d take it. To good to be true
  3. It would be interesting if so. 50% at least, have 30+ years at FRAP.
  4. What dark said!!! Long and drawn out, then dark cut his head off, hilarious! Don’t pay dues, STFU.
  5. Got slammed by tier 2 for voting yes. Yep. 3-4 yr guy. I'm at 23 yrs. No moving allowance to go back to his plant, "like everybody else got", and full pay in four years. Misinformed is an understatement. "You guys screwed us once, we're standing up". I have never wished for my retirement to come so soon.
  6. The Escape won't stay in LAP. Lincoln won't be down there anymore. Why would it stay? 17 recalls since it launched. Just saying
  7. I think they got this right, especially for the families.
  8. I call that job security. Glad for you guys.
  9. The next time you get a chance, go register as a tea party republican. Seriously. You speak right from Faux news and radical right wing conspiracy blogs. This trump is a side show. He's will say and do anything and you are falling for it. Like I said, Obama will kill him in a presidential election. He cant debate with the Pres. I cut and paste some of an article from thinkprogress.org. Check it out and quit typing and sounding so ignorant. Then give me your exact source of info. On several occasions, Trump has implied that Obama’s grandparents essentially lied about his citizenship “for social reasons.” The other “smart people” who agree with him include conservative blogger Tom Maguire who claims the birth announcement was planted to win a potential custody battle involving “a black Kenyan baby sought by the black Kenyan father and his African family.” Yet, as Crowley pointed out, the birth information printed in the Honolulu Advertiser always came directly from the state health department (via the local hospital), not Obama’s grandparents or relatives. It’s also worth noting that since Obama’s mother was a U.S. citizen, he was automatically conferred citizenship and all of its “assets” no matter where he was born, thus making him eligible anyway for the benefits Trump claims his family committed fraud to obtain. Unless his grandparents somehow knew that baby Obama would one day want to run for president, there wouldn’t really be a reason for his family to fabricate a convoluted lie regarding his birthplace. White House senior adviser David Plouffe dismissed Donald Trump’s birther beliefs today, noting that “there may be a small part of the country that believes these things, but mainstream Americans think it’s a side show.” In fact, more than half of GOP primary voters believe Obama was not born in the U.S., compared to 11 percent of the general public.
  10. Frickn birther bitches. What a joke. The man has proven he's eligble to be president. His mother is American so it really doesn't matter where he was born technically. You idiots think they would let a black man on the ballot if he wasn't legit. Pleeease. Fuck Trump, he bankrupt two casinos. Everthing he says is, "I hear", "I hear", but he don't know jack. Find something to hang on to but the fact remains, your president is black. Get over it, accept it. Bring him on in 2012 and watch the Pres. beat his ass down. McCain wasn't born in the U.S.. Look it up. Matter of fact, can I see the live birth of Bush. Go have some tea idiots. The president isn't perfect but he's in charge and doing a good job considering he's working with a bunch of "just say no to everything he tries legislators". Their goal is to destroy the man but he keep moving forward and I know in the back of his mind he's saying "fuck them, this is about America". Four more years, Four more years, Four more years. Birthers, fuck you all, give me some substance.
  11. Crybabies? Really? Someone from kcap calling us crybabies. Don't be mad. It's was in the best interest of the company to take over certain models. Ouch! Sometimes I hit too hard. Straight up, no ice, no chaser. Just how I roll. Keep it straight.
  12. Just wondering if you take pictures and hand out badges. I can only wish I drove a forklift at this time. They don't have fans but the facility is a climate controled facility. I'm not saying it's AC but I got there last June and it was hot but nothing, I mean nothing like St. Louis or even AAI with fans. Experiment: go outside in 90 degree weather this summer and go back inside dtp, you will feel the difference. It's (dtp) just not that bad. Yes you do work on wood or concrete but what would you prefer? Really? Seriously? I'm almost afraid to ask that. It's still thirty an hour and it's no picnic (parts plant). Buyout, your joking right? I hope your able to get out, I really am, because I bet there are people who'd give there front teeth for thirty, better yet, temps. in there right now, willing to take your spot. So good luck with that buyout and school. Like I said, if your coming from assembly, nothing will surprise you about the work at dtp. Just keep in mind how to perform a job at a comfortable pace and if your running, it's your own fault. I'm done with this topic and moving on. DTP works for me and to some it doesn't, but it boils down to how you approach it. Just be positive. Straight, no chaser.
  13. That is exactly right! It's a place where they expect you to work, god forbid. Your going to work 10.7 hrs period. Compared to Saline it will be hell for ya. But those straight from assembly should be fine. You will be put on a job and that will be your job unitil you get a bid or retire. If you have less than 16-17 years, don't expect to get a good bid. I'm personally glad dtp has the reputation it does because it keeps the super high seniority away due to real WORK. That's my take on it. I happen to like dtp because it's the most job secure place I have worked in the ford system, which is the most important thing to really consider rather than, "is really as bad as they say", or "I have to actually work" or "I hear the jobs suck" or "I hear you have to walk up steps, down a mezzanine, down more steps just to get to my job." Suck it people, after all, it's 30 an hour. Frickn pansy asses.
  14. AAI should already be on tag relieve considering one shift was implimented on july 12. It takes 4-6 weeks to train for tag relief. With that being said, what is the delay? The writing was on the the wall because they kept way to many people for one shift. Even with tag, there is probably an excess of 200 heads. A new product would iron out the manpower issues. The union made a point of saving jobs initially but looks like they just slowed the bleeding down. AAI is at a fork in the road and only it's navigation system (Glass House) knows the direction and it's even confused. Give AAI direction!
  15. The Heritage Foundation is a conservative think tank organization that pushes right wing extremism. They take this groups info as gospel? Let the crazies be crazy die. They copy and paste from these sites and then claim, "it must be true, our conservative gods (beck, boner, shelby, reagan etc.) say so". SMDH!
  16. Hey def stick to the topic of work because your much better at that. This little rant you just spewed is a page right out of the repub. playbook. Looks like a copy and paste. "In his own words", wow, really? Read the whole statement, if it exist. "Liberal media", blah, blah. What news do you read? Apparently you don't read news that reported that POTUS put a stop to all drilling for six months but was overturned by a judge that is an big investor in energy. Too bad you didn't put that in there, which is quite relevant. "I know you don't believe anything but liberal media", but the Center for American Progress is as liberal as it gets. I have the site bookmarked and read it daily. Call me liberal. There is a gang of info. on cap and trade and I think you just grossly misrepresented Obama's position. The purpose of cap and trade is not to "skyrocket" energy prices and I just have to call you out on that. It's easy place conspiracy and blame on the Pres. but he's still the smartest guy in the room, in my opinion, and overall on the peoples side.
  17. Still nada? The last week and no info yet? Readly to get away from this cluster#@%$ of a plant.
  18. So is 94 on the bubble or 97. Just trying to figure what sen. you state is on the bubble or how you would be the lowest to stay because you started in 94 . Thanks.
  19. WTF are you talking about. AAI had a chance to stop what? It's not AAI fault your in whatever situation your in. You don't want to wish nothing bad upon your fellow bro's/sis's but you still say "maybe then they will be offered a temp spot somewhere and feel what is like to have 95' seniority (the current cutoff) and zero plant seniority, stuck in trim on some bad shift in a crummy unit". You could have gone somewhere else pal. I am in trim by the way, with more seniority than you, on a crappy job and night shift, soooo now what? Suck it up. You don't have my sympathy. Your working okay.
  20. Yeah, that's proof. I'm cool with that. Thanks.
  21. Ok, it's Monday. Let me guess, it will be announced tues. or it will be announced some time this month/year.
  22. My thoughts exactly. If he is wrong, I'm going to cuss his mf ass out.
