Call me what you want. I have an opinion like everyone else. I dont take shit, or eat shit or bend over as you say. I have no problem resolving issues on my own. If I need the union then its something legitimate that I cant fix on my own. Nobody has me herded. I am on a good team with a good group of members. I like my job and have nowhere near the problems that these name callers have. Sorry if my opinion doesn't line up with the 1%.

Kiss ass ???? Not even close. Just not a drama queen like you. I have never read such garbage on here in my life. You and your 250 poster names are ridiculous

Dont know about the buy down but all of the trades working in my dept are back to their tools.

All while the remaining 99% of us come to work do our jobs to the highest quality everyday. Sorry for your thoughts on DTP but I like my job as well as the entire team. We are greatful for our great pay, benifits, medical and dental for our families. Sorry but you are not speaking for the 99%

Reading the news link leads me to believe the end is near

Trades at DTP are not retiring until June July and August. Most likely they will be posting in the summer.

Sorry to read these posts about DTP. The Rouge and DTP have provided me with a good job, pay and great benefits for over 30 years. The misfits that post here are of the .001% of us at DTP.

Those are our temps from DTP and temps from other locations. Thanks to the UAW they provided a path to full time employment for them. Some of these temps now new hires have been temps for years. Thank you UAW !!!!

Over 900 took the trades package and over 500 took the production package. I have not seen this posted but just the word on the street

Great post. Most of the posters here dont understand the arbitration process and how lengthy it can be. The timing on hearings and testimony falls upon the direction of the arbitrator. Ford nor the UAW lawyers can speed this up or slow it down. Its the arbitrator that runs the show.

We work 4 days a week. We have 4 weeks vacation, 1 week personal and 20 paid holidays a year. Who has a problem coming to work? Isn't that why we applied to come work at Ford?

I have a complaint at DTP I come to work, do my job get paid very well at nearly $30 per hour, the best benefits of anyone I know, union protected job security and 3 days off a week. I made the most money ever last year, more than any year ever with the least amount of overtime. I am treated with respect by management and I treat people the same way. I'm no doormat as I raise legitimate issues and get them resolved on my own or with the union if needed. Whom do I complain to about this terrible set of circumstances?

Most of the trades on this poll are taking the 100000,,,,,, Is this an official exit poll??????

I know many Trades that are signing up for this huge opportunity (retraining). Also, that report of over 400 trades taking the 100000 was 2 weeks ago (old news). The window for trades closes March 6th and historically that 400 trades will grow well over 500 trades in the final 2 weeks of sign up.
