I find it funny that all of a sudden there are postings up for Livonia Transmission.

trailfndr, if you were laying people off, even temporarily, would you think of that as a surplus of people? ( they do not have a return to work date, the posting for Woodhaven says 3 month renewable loan) It really bothers me that they would allow people to sign up for a plant that is 51 miles away (Rawsonville to Van Dyke) instead of sending them to Woodhaven stamping which is about 23 miles away? So, we laid people off and sent people to Woodhaven. If they had posted those jobs at my plant, FRAP, people who live out that way such as myself could maybe drive anywhere from 10 to 15 miles instead of driving 40 miles one way. We are just upset that we were not considered at all. If I were to sign it and could not make the cut according to seniority, then so be it, but to not get that opportunity is just a bunch of crap...

I am curious if anyone knows where else the Van Dyke jobs were posted. I believe Sheldon Road, Rawsonville, and Saline, but I have heard they were posted at a couple other facilities, can anyone help?

It has come to my attention that there were postings that went up at a few of the plants for the eastside. I know that we did not, nor have we ever had the opportunity to sign up for that at Flat Rock Assembly. I am not sure where they were all posted, but I know Sheldon Road and Rawsonville were a couple of them that got the postings. As one of a few, I live on the eastside, and personally would like the opportunity to move over there. I feel that there is no reason why we were not afforded that considering that we have forced people to Woodhaven Stamping over the last 2 weeks.
