Ok I know, the keys and lock might happen again... but I had to forward this..... March 2020, watching a local newscast. Two Sheriff deputies were chasing a man across a beach that, but for those three, was empty of humans. The shirtless guy hadn’t killed anyone, stolen a purse, or even jaywalked – his crime was just being on a beach, by himself. LA County had decided that it was a public health hazard, just be on the beach. Later, LA County was taking outdoor basketball hoops either down or covering them up. Tons of sand were dumped into skate parks to prevent their use. Across the country, people were masking outdoors and yelling at people who weren’t. I was yelled at several times by people a hundred feet from me — for not wearing a mask. Why? Tony said so Grocery stores were being overrun. Not a roll of toilet paper in sight. People were buying items that they likely hadn’t bought, ever. Why? Tony said so Mask up. Don’t mask up. Double mask, triple mask. Two weeks to flatten the curve. Why? Tony said so Never again shake someone’s hand. Why? Tony said so Sanitize your groceries, don’t touch anything. Not a bottle of sanitizer to be found. It’s airborne. It’s on the furniture. It’s airborne again. Why? Tony said so Six Feet Distance. “It’s the science” Why? Tony said so The virus came from bats. The virus isn’t manmade. It didn’t come from a lab. Don’t blame China. Why? Tony said so Take the jab, you’re protected. Take the jab, you’re kinda protected. Take the jab, it’s better than nothing. Take the jab and a booster. Wash, Rinse Repeat. Why? Tony said so American’s highest-paid government employee. Why... makes ya wonder.

There are a lot of good business scenarios and akirby`s is one. The Ford food truck is switching to the lobster rolls and I think it will work out for the profit side of the scenario. down the road. But, the Ford food truck isn`t the only food truck with the lobster roll ideas. Every ten minutes it comes on the big screen in our family rooms the commercials from every other food truck from KIA to BMW. All businesses are running full stream on this. Then again the Ford food truck has a slight edge and that is the Ford hotdogs are still selling out unlike the Tundra, Silverado etc etc. So the cash flow is far from restricted. Which is a good business situation to be in while R&D pulls hotdog money from the food truck. Having the number one selling truck, forever and the number one selling full size SUV is something other food trucks can`t use in their attempt at pushing the lobster roll out the service window. So yes I do agree the Ford food truck is in a better place business wise. Will the change on the menu work? The curious buyers are already in line. But will these "I just had to have one" or "I`m the first on my block with one" buyers be an asset? That will be as always one of the possible two sides to the marketing blade. The early bird buyer might be happy or not so much. The under side of the marketing blade is as it has in the past not so good for the new products that just fall short of the just gotta have one crowd. Talk around town is the Ford Food truck crew is working hard on two ingredients. Batteries & cost, if the first ingredient is achieved by having a truly rapid charge system the second ingredient may be over looked for a while by the curious buyers. And give favorable reactions that will pull in the Jane & John Doe peeps into the dealerships. Maybe. As far as those thinking of the cost reduction in labor, well Chicago & Louisville etc etc have multiple facilities and there`s multiple represented work forces at these facilities. So as far as the Ford Food truck crew looking for ways to trim labor costs, umm have those suggesting this seen one of the last 4 or 5 UAW contracts? The labor cost is one of the factors you`ll see a profit check next week. Of course there are those at CAP, you no the sky is falling peep`s, CAP is finally closing!!!! Oh yeah those someone told me, I heard and did you hear peep`s are wetting their panties with this latest information. We "CAP" can`t build these units because we don`t have the room. We can`t build`em so they`re closing SHO Center first, then TDM then CAP too eventually. After dam near 46 years I still can`t figure out what these knuckleheads get out of the "did you hear" conversations....

As of 04 Mar. 2022; The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has changed its recommendations on indoor face mask usage and, as a result, we are updating the face mask protocol in our U.S. facilities to align with the current CDC guidance. Starting Friday, March 4, Ford facilities that are located in areas with a green or yellow status will no longer be required to wear masks while indoors. Ford will continue to provide masks for those who voluntarily choose to wear them, and team members should continue to follow Ford’s guidance related to the use of cloth masks placed over Ford masks and the use of their own KN95 or N95 masks. As of now, facilities in Florida and Nashville remain in orange status and all employees and visitors are required to continue to wear face masks in facilities located there. Ford will continue to monitor the data and if locations are reclassified for seven consecutive days, we will adjust the mask requirement accordingly.

My point is just "time", our society is one that we and corporations have put in place the time schedules that governs everything. "You" need to be at work at, you have to be over there for this at or why don`t we take that flight because it gets us there earlier. Now maybe not everyone is scheduled out to every minute but most everyone at one time or another has passed themselves coming and going. Maybe there will be the day that the time consuming charging schedule will be nothing more than the old school pull into the station plug in and 5 minutes later you`re rolling again. Maybe? Full electric is definitely the way of the future, according to the trends. But, have we kind of forgot about a unit that can keep up with our busy schedules? We still have PHEV`s rolling down the line. A unit that charges itself on the go. A unit that can go non stop for thousand's of miles. But, the trends or fades make the decisions.

We have worked with multiple divisions in the past. Ford - Mercury - Lincoln so company divisions isn`t a new cooperate situation. Now, Ford Blue - Ford Model e: Ford will scale up our BEV capacity to 600,000 by the end of 2023 - and that's just the beginning. Henry gave people (his customers) the freedom of the open road. I wonder where the freedom will be if everyone has to live by a charging schedule? Yes I'm old school but, not a hater of new idea`s. Maybe the Henry`s of today have it all figured out. To give one a perspective of what it was like crossing the nation in a model T back in that models day, check out the latest documentary called the Long Way Up. There's an old saying that is applied to two wheeled journeys and that can apply to any journey really, "it`s not the destination it`s the journey". The first episodes put`s into perspective in a sense what it must have been like to get into your model T and head out. But in this day and time will people be free enough with their time and schedules to except the freedom governed by waiting for charging? In the documentary not only are the bikes electric but the chase SUV` are also. The documentary turned from the adventure of the journey to a docudrama of such. Finding the fuel source became the whole content of the first few episodes, the journey was in a distant second place. This changed only when the fuel source was all but edited out of the story line. Then the documentary became much more visually appealing. But in real life there isn`t a film editor and things would be much different than the documentary. Many things have come a long way from the model T days, comfort, speed and the open road it`s self. But one thing has stayed the same for older transport machines, the fueling schedules have stayed as short as one would want. Freedom of the open road is in many ways going to change.

Slipping out? naaa Interesting? not really. It`s just showing how the flip flopping starts in the press by some heavy hittin left of center rags. From todays New York Times, “So, has Russia become Venezuela or is it still Iran?” Hmm where are all the out spoken DSA members of congress? The russian pin drops and you can hear it all over DC. Not a word from those that use the word Democratic as an engine to pull their Socialist's train? Nothing from our DSA members right here in the UAW? The "UAWD" noooo not United Auto Working Dudes" the "Unite All Workers for Democracy" guy`s haven't put out one of the UAWD fliers calling for the end of the russian invasion? Wait he can`t because the DSA has completely pledged their support on social media and most likely financial support to the Unite All Workers for Democracy. That`s most likely why it`s so quiet from the Chairman of the UAWD that is a member of UAW Local 551. Our resident comrade knows better. There is a large group of United Auto Workers at Local 551 in full support of the Ukrainian people and have great respect for their President. (hey old guy in DC we need ammo not a ride to exile) Once again those that have had their democracy taken from them and won it back are more than willing to stand and fight for the democratic process. Democratic Socialist's of America (DSA or Bernie Boys or Squad) and their comrades in the Unite All Workers for Democracy will use the word Democratic only till their Socialist process is in place. Then All Worker are Comrades.

28 February 2022 The Illinois circus of mandates has come to an end. The requirement of proof of vax to enter restaurants and bars is over with the consent of ring master prickster. Wonder when the adults at CAP will get around to making the decision to make face diapers optional?

Slipping out.... well maybe not slipping cause the CDC has been more confusing than anything from the beginning. "Some people getting Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines should consider waiting up to eight weeks between the first and second doses, instead of the three or four weeks previously recommended, U.S. health officials said." "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Tuesday quietly changed its advice on spacing the shots." "CDC officials said they were reacting to research showing that the longer interval can provide more enduring protection against the coronavirus. Research suggests that 12- to 64-year-olds — especially males ages 12 to 39 — can benefit from the longer spacing, the CDC said." This has been one hellava different ride over the last two years. What with... the drivers (super hero`s) of the pandemic relief bus never being able to figure out what route to take. Ohh have the drivers (super hero`s) of the pandemic relief bus figured out there is a difference in the "of" and "with" method of counting? never mind they`ll never get it.

Maybe not in 38 months, maybe sooner our society will need to consider using "comrade" a lot more? Now China is talking confrontation, too.

CDC hiding data? interesting....

There are more than a few questions here. After 10 years why would you be concerned with being terminated while on a medical leave if, your paperwork is in place and even if you receive a 5 day notice for whatever reason just comply with the process. Contractors? not that well aware with OHAP current contractor polices but, I`m not sure how a contractor can follow you and light your cigarette and then pretend (?) you had a weapon? Then what`s to have concern with if the responding police and video exonerated you from the contractors claims? "Hand in Pocket" incident? Is LRO still in an on going investigation situation? If OHAP is in the same employee situation as CAP your concerns of LRO wanting to select legacy employee`s to terminate is well, just another concern that isn`t something to be concerned with. CAP has just over 900 legacy employee`s, this minority of employee`s really is no longer any bearing on the everyday business of CAP. The five thousand plus non legacy employee`s save CAP more money everyday then if you doubled what`s paid to legacy employee`s. Maybe way more. As for the targeting Legacy employee`s, these employee`s lost their strength 3 or 4 contracts ago. You might see in this next contract items that even lessens legacy employee`s strength. Then with a clean record as you've stated your concern may just be self inflicted with the help of all the floor level rumors, possibly? Unfortunately you`ll most likely have to let the process play out. It will take way to much time but you have to exhaust all internal procedures before seeking legal representation. A good attorney will advice you to exhaust the appeals process because that will open possibly two doors of legal pursuit. Hey... get yourself together, clear medical, and report to work because concern like this never fixes a dam thing. (Next time leave your friends (Mr. Smith & Mr. Wesson) at home.....) Just kiddin

February 8, 2022 Is the Coronavirus in Your Backyard? White-tailed deer could become a reservoir for the virus, putting people and animals at risk, health experts say. New York Deer Infected With Omicron, Study Finds White-tailed deer on Staten Island have become the first wild animals with documented Omicron infections. The coronavirus has now been found in deer in 15 states. Health "Experts" say......

Yaa don`t think the numbers over the last two years were just a little tilted for any one reason, do yaa? 08 Feb. 2022 POLITICO A task force comprised of scientists and data specialists at the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are working with hospitals nationwide to improve Covid-19 reporting. The group is asking hospitals to report numbers of patients who go to the facility because they have Covid-19 and separate those from individuals who go in for other reasons and test positive after being admitted, the two officials said. The administration’s goal is to get a more accurate sense of Covid-19’s impact across the country and whether the virus is causing severe disease. Senior Biden health officials have increasingly relied on hospitalization numbers, rather than case counts, to determine how to respond to the virus as well as the efficacy of the vaccines. Lower hospitalization rates could inform the administration’s thinking on public health measures such as masking. More accurate Covid-19 numbers also could provide a better picture of the strain on hospitals and which resources they might need during surges… “You need a panel of experts to review the cases to adjudicate if a hospitalization is for a person who came in for Covid or with Covid,” Topol said. “It’s not something that is coded in the chart. A lot of people will say an individual came in with Covid, but it was actually the Covid that exacerbated the lung or heart disease.” For or with?

Hmmm masking the group least effected by the rona... well..on second thought? Masking kids might not be as good a guess as the experts said...? Imagine that. (New Jersey, Oregon, Connecticut, and Delaware mask mandate umm maybe not a good idea. Wait a minute… Delaware? Not the co-president’s backyard?) More to slip out soon. Some can`t stand the thought of the rona, may come to an end. How many jabs will be sold before "wrong" is made a word in more and more conversations?

Get your "free" rapid rona test yet...? iHealth is a unit of the Chinese company Andon Health Co. Ltd., according to Reuters. It was awarded a $1.275 billion contract for COVID-19 rapid tests with the U.S. government on Jan. 13, according to the Defense.gov website. Got a company in Indiana and Florida that makes the rapid rona tests too. Slippin out......

Hmmm.... Just 40% of fully vaccinated Americans have received a booster dose, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And the average number of booster shots dispensed per day in the U.S. has plummeted from a peak of 1 million in early December to about 490,000 as of last week. Also, a new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that Americans are more likely to see the initial vaccinations — rather than a booster — as essential. “It’s clear that the booster effort is falling short,” said Jason Schwartz, a vaccine policy expert at Yale University.

Vaccine for children under 5 years of age. According to the good Doctor, soon. “The United States has been polio-free since 1979, thanks to a successful vaccination program”. Again, slightly misleading statement, it wasn`t as stated “a successful vaccination program” but more correctly the success of a proven medical research process resulting in a successful vaccine." "Jonas Salk, was an American virologist and medical researcher who developed one of the first successful polio vaccines. In 1947, Salk accepted a professorship in the school of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh. It was there that he undertook a project to determine the number of different types of poliovirus, starting in 1948. For the next seven years, Salk devoted himself towards developing a vaccine against polio." "Salk was immediately hailed as a "miracle worker" when the vaccine's success was first made public in April 1955 and chose to not patent the vaccine or seek any profit from it to maximize its global distribution." Now fast forward to the late twenty teens, another doctor of virology has rewritten medical ethics. A weapons level virus research, gone wrong. Profit before validation. Promoting on all levels an unverified, non-data based proven vaccine to the public. Was it ever communicated or portrayed to the public in anyway that those who didn`t receive the polio vaccine would cause others who did receive the vaccine to intern get the virus from those who were unvaccinated? Vaccine that stopped the virus developed, researched, and tested in the late `50`s. 2020 - Vaccine that is proclaimed the only method to save the world? But, manufactured for profit.
