Oh cool, they’re going to play games with overtime rules at your plant too eh?

That was a standard work schedule for LAP before 3 crews started. Back in the 90s and early 2000s LAP always worked five 10 hr days and Saturday’s when they needed. There were years where every other Saturday was worked and sometimes 2 out of every 3. Personally I think 3 crews is bad business. It basically leaves no room to cut back without laying people off. 2 crews with tag relief always made more sense to me. But I’m just an assembler.

Have you heard if that means we are going on 5 10's, anything like that?  What about buyouts, will they be offered?

I heard five 10s and Saturday’s as needed. Haven’t heard anything about buyouts. Let’s hope though.

They're talking about when they hired in I think as a cut off date, whether or not they know what they are talking about or not........ I guess we'll see Thursday ?

Yep. There were around 250 people hired in March 2012. So the cut line could fall anywhere in there. But as always take info with a grain of salt.
