I pray to GOD people don't talk about the UAW in a bad way when we turned dwn this last concession ! Our last consession that we did approve did save the company $ 500 million !!! Look on the bright side Ford , we just saved you another $41million by not passes the contract !! I know Ford has debt but every company and everyone in AMERICA has DEBT !!! Keep posting profits and we will all be happy !!!!!

Sorry bro I just cant agree with you on this one ! I'm a firm believer no matter how many contracts you pass or dont pass but if they want to close your plant nothing will stop them ! So dont beat yourself up too much over this, its outta our hands !

Look I will not go on here and tell people how to vote one way or the other but I will say this if we were ever so united like how we are all now , we shouldve shot dwn the one before this ! We gave away a lot more than we are giving now ! More than anything I believe skilled trades and the entry level employees have a harder pill to swallow verus the production. And I know we havent use our strike in a long ass time but I just feel that if the company and union would just take out that no strike clause out , that might help sway voters to a YES vote ! Also if they had a higher bonus to let's say around 2000.00 and be paid right before the holidays and not in March of 2010 that would also help voter's vote YES. The company has taken quite a bit of bonus $$ in the past , if they really wanted to get this contract pass I believe those two things would help out big time !!

DETNEWS says sterling shoots down the contract !!!

I just can't vote YES !!!! I for one will not tell anyone how to vote but I'm just sick and tired of all the game playing going on between the UAW and Ford ! I was promised if I voted YES on the last contract consession that I wouldnt be laid off for a long time and now look at me I'm into TAP ! So no matter what anyone tries to sell me , I will not not buy anymore of there shit ! Go to the freep website and read what Bill Ford said today ....While Ford still has challenges -- such as managing $35 billion in debt and generating cash -- analysts expect positive surprises from Ford next week. Executive Chairman Bill Ford acknowledged the challenges in getting the UAW to approve a new deal right now. Said Ford: "There is no question the timing is bad." Need I saymore !!!!!

I doubt we will ever see a " big profit sharing check " again ! I just can't vote yes when I'm plantless !

what's the difference , I'm still on ILO from the first consession !!! Yeah IUAW really helped me out !!!!!

That's a great question !! Doesnt make any sense !!!!

I've hardly ever posted on here , please find my " stupid post's " LOL. You have to understand one thing , no matter what the company want's , if they want it bad enough we as a union must adjust because at the end they will get what they truly want !!

LOL , we'll get there sooner or later !!
