  1. Toke, toke, pass Hey dumb ass, there are many plants out there that would love to have the problem of "running 3 crew" The shame of your situation is you are ungrateful, heaven forbid you lose product in the future because of your hatred of 3 crew, $29.00 per hour jobs, great health care and job security for years to come..... You are an ass
  2. Hey Fisher, It comes down to 2 options: Stay with the new company or sign up while postings are available at a Ford location. You can spin drama like any Diva but there is a decision to make. IMO, you are crazy if you stay with the new company Sign up while you can
  3. Decker, Sorry you had to read the display of stupidity by norpie. I only say "stupid' because I (and others on here) have explained the arbitration process time and time again. He still wants to throw poop on the wall, see if it sticks, to entice people and I will have no part of it. Sorry but I support my committee and help them in any way possible. At my location we (the entire union committee/members) ensure understandings of the contract and actions of the processes. Norpie is a divider and the very evil Reuther warned us about in our memberships that will reap all of the benefits of collective bargaining and still do everything in his power to dismantle this union. I know you understand Brotherhood if you have been around as long as I have. I will continue to support this union in every way possible. Take care........... and oh by the way thanks for the offer to CAP, you are correct in the UAW ensuring all of this investment in your plant and the thousands of jobs generated. My location will be fine like yours thanks to the UAW
  4. Please read the grievance and arbitration process language in our national agreement. Your ignorance in the process is evident in your rambling response. Once you educate yourself you can come back and apologize to everyone on the 2 second waste of time we spent reading your display of stupidity in your post
  5. The-last-update-from-Mr Settles- stated-there-was-a-hearing-scheduled-last-week. If-they-are-still-in-hearings-then-that-means-there-is-still-witness-examination-and-cross-examination. That-means-that-the-120-day-period-has-not=started-yet.
  6. Smoke screen??? This is the arbitration process. It takes time. The grievance procedure is outlined in our agreement including the arbitration process. Once the lawyers on both sides present all data and all interviews are done then the 120 day period starts. This is our process. The arbitrator will make a final binding decision. Nothing new here as stated above. Umpire decisions define our contract. Nothing is any different now as in the past 50+ years with the arbitration process
  7. Your facts are skewed and twisted. Ford Motor Company's way forward plan had 80% of production moving to Mexico in a five year timeline. The Union negotiated on our behalf a concessionary 2007 agreement for our job security and keeping jobs in the USA !!!! The UAW was successful in gaining huge investments in our 2011 agreement creating thousands of jobs and even returning work and product back into our plants from mexico and asia There, now you learned facts
  8. Please educate yourself before posting here new one. Engage yourself with the arbitration process and how it is utilized by many industries for final and binding conflict resolution. The case is still in the arbitration examination cross examination of witnesses. The arbitrator is an administrative law judge and will render a decision once the he decides the all evidence has been presented. Company nor union can taint the arbitration process. Now start posting facts and not your imaginary thoughts
  9. Well there will be plenty of openings from the $100Gs and $50Gs retirement incentives. Once those postings go up and are filled there wont be much opportunity thereafter.
  10. Simple theory, really. Been around for thousands of years. Come to work = Get paid (c + t + w) = GP Dont come to work = Put your job in jeopardy (d + c + t + w) = NoJob
  11. Stupid post............... Who cares
  12. Havent read the contract on these but the explanation was that all 3 are well above $30.00 per hour
  13. Seen the new blue oval Ford sign today rolling down I-94 heading toward Saline yesterday. The pole barn roof and door were recently repaired and smokey said that they put it in the barn last night
  14. You just cant grasp how blessed you are that the UAW negotiated all of the investments, job security and piece of mind everyday you walk through those gates at CAP. Your "product investment" and "additional shifts" are good problems to have. Just remember your job is more secure than the remaining 40,000 of us so your complains of job security dont go far. Vent all you want but its sickening to me the constant whining when you should be thankful of the job security that was negotiated for CAP
