  1. If you say so. My personal experience says otherwise.
  2. I’ve seen them force retirement before if you’re a big enough fuck up. It was either retire by the end of the day on a certain day or be fire and lose everything. I expect to see far more of that.
  3. The only difference is locomotives don’t have the batteries involved
  4. This has been my absolute biggest complaint since my first day on the line. I see a lot of forced retirements coming in the next 12-18 months.
  5. Nevermind the fact that it was basically technology they developed as EMC (later EMD) back in the 1930s.
  6. Interesting little tidbit I just found https://x.com/mikemartinez_an/status/1717645031652155474?s=46
  7. I thought there was 2 in Tennessee, 1 in Kentucky and the 1 in Marshall that may or may not still be happening.
  8. I heard Marshall and Tennessee are. No word on Kentucky. We’ll all find out together on Sunday
  9. It wouldn’t surprise me to find out whoever runs UAW social media is deleting negative comments
  10. Most of the shit talkers have been pretty quiet the last 10 hours.
  11. Full details will be out Sunday evening after the Ford council votes on whether or not to send it to membership for a vote.
  12. Big difference in the reaction on the MAP Facebook groups I’m in vs the post on the UAW International page. There’s 1 guy in particular I know is going to be very, VERY bitter for the next 4 years if this passes.
  13. Full details should be available Sunday evening after the Ford council voted on whether or not to bring it to the membership has always struck me as a formality. Strike ends today to keep pressure on GM and Stellantis. Everyone on strike now is considered to be on TLO until return to work process is worked out.
  14. video from Fain https://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/autos/2023/10/25/ford-uaw-set-to-announce-tentative-agreement-with-25-percent-raise/71320883007/
  15. Still waiting on the official announcement but what local leadership told the strikers at the line is the strike is officially over at 8pm and stand by for return to work instructions. That is being coordinated between union leaders and management right now.
  16. Watch them take 2 weeks to vote like they usually do ??‍♂️ could get it done by Monday if they really wanted to.
  17. Rumored to be a 25% raise over 4 years with COLA and the Facebook mafia is pissed it’s not at least 30 ??‍♂️
  18. She needs to keep her mouth shut and stay out of it.
  19. Very reliable source says keep an eye on the news around 5 or 6
  20. It’s partly because it was a 100 percent mailing system and not everyone has their correct address on file. Had they had every local do an in person ballot turnout would have been much higher
  21. I really hope that’s true. It’s past time to get this shit settled.
  22. I think the desire amongst the majority of the membership is a minimum of 30%. My best friend I talk to constantly keeps saying it’s going to be hard for him to vote for less than that.
  23. I only know about it from a friend who used to work for one of those agencies at Trenton Engine and a friend of the family who was a supervisor at that plant.
