  1. Is this posting for production? or trades? thx!
  2. I see one paystub=and its my normal weekly check. Just didnt know when the profit sharing check stub will post....
  3. Does anyone know when the profit check will be viewable on the at.ford paystub website? I see my weekly check this morning but no profit check. thx
  4. Understandably so...per our unions usual handling of grievances-BUT, at least this grievance is backed by the entire membership and has been made public and news worthy. I just feel the union had a hold on a nice bargaining tool-and just rolled over again. The company should have been held to settle "all" prior grievances prior to settlement of the new contract-but why are we having to "school" our own leadership on what "should" be done???
  5. Here is a good opportunity to show "our union" and the company that we're not going to allow another grievance to be swept under the rug. The contract should never had went foward until this grievance was settled upon first! It will either be forgotten or we will be offered squat-after we ratify this agreement. There will be no motivation for the company to settle it with a "fair" conclusion if we dont hold them to it PRIOR to the agreement of the contract....typical union performance.
  6. yeah-did that today-easy to do-but should be set up so we can do this at home. thanks
  7. guess my password expired-so where and how do we reset a password on the at.ford.com paystub website??
  8. can someone tell me the date for August shutdown for C-crew at DTP? thanks
  9. Can anyone tell me what week we have off in August for shutdown?
  10. can anyone narrow my search in our contract books to find article/language on "short work week" description? thanks!
  11. I thought I made it plain. Its nothing to do with wanting to awol-its the company wanting to hold us to two diff. "holidays" -- Good Friday and Easter Sunday. If u dont wanna pay triple time on Friday for working us on a holiday, then make it correct-u must work saturday before Easter Sunday in order to get holiday pay. If u want to label Friday as holiday, then u cant bring people in and not pay according to contracts. I bet if DTP brings people from A or B crew in on Friday-they'll get the double time-right?
  12. ok...we're being told we are working Good Friday, so we can have Sunday off as our holiday-fine. BUT, labor tells us that in order to recieve holiday pay for "Friday" we must work the day before and after. Well, if "Friday" is our holiday, then why are we not getting our triple to work it?? NOW-if Sunday is our holiday, then why are we being told we have to work the day before and after Friday. Its either one way or the other-u cant hold us to 2 diff. standards. So--whats the rest of C-Crew's take on this??
  13. How can ANY company push payroll thru when we haven't even worked yet? Last Sunday we on C crew were either paid before we worked the day--or others were AWOL for the day (even though they were there working!?!?) cause payroll had to run payroll?? What about liability for those who are paid on company time but didn't show up? Or how about those AWOL'ed but showed up to work? It's a lawless place but then again we still have no 2007 local union contract books....
  14. Lets assume we have yet to give up ANY concessions. Now, the company and UAW come to us with ALL of the concessions we gave up in the past plus what they want us to give up now. Do u or anyone really believe that we would pass it?? BUT they come at us a little at a time--and it doesnt seem so bad. It's crazy how much they have taken and yet our own UAW officials aren't taking cuts-our union dues are the same-the leaders in management still making millions!
  15. This blows my mind. All the talk of how the company is promising us new work in exchange for concessions----are we suppose to think that this NEW work is for us alone??? New work is how a company survives--Ford needs this and any new work to survive period! Whether concessions pass or not, there will be new work-there has to be-they want it, and we want it.
  16. I don't care what Ford wants--we get no recognition of past concessions. All they want is more, more, and more. All these repetitive promises of work?? Their promises are as unreliable as our Union contracts! Why are they so bent on getting this "No strike" clause passed? Afraid we might want to strike in the near future?
  17. so a tentative deal is reached...now we'll see just by how many votes they get this one to pass! Make sure to check if a yes vote is a yes and a no vote a no.
  18. Thanks--also, any ideas on how many are taking the buyout?
  19. Anyone at AAI know the current production/schedule you're working thru the remainder of the year? They're surveying at DTP for RTBUs'. Any tlos' scheduled? Also, what about working 4 10 hr days? Whats the current work week schedule? thanks
  20. Some workers went to Dearborn and then came back here just to be able to transfer to Saline. Are you talking about the group of us that signed up to go to DTP last January? Cause if so, I'd sure like to know who and how many people returned to AAI for Saline. We have been told time and again-AAI won't allow us back for any open jobs. -just curious- Also--any info on how many people are still needed there at AAI?
  21. Can anyone direct me as to how I obtain a discount for family/friends who want to buy a Ford vehicle? Is there ba number to call-if so what is it? Thanks!
  22. Yeah- on C crew they are telling us that control arm is already being done by one person on days. Too much to do-so as long as we stand together, they MIGHT see.
  23. They expect us to take a cut in our sub pay-all the while we are being told of all of the weeks of downtime coming!! Let's see our union dues cut-how's that for concessions? We are expected to for go our deserved bonuses?? We gave up raises for those bonuses! Not to mention all the other sacrifices we gave- and what else they intend on us giving up. Don't threaten us with bancruptcy-when you're not even accepting the damn bailout loans!!! My vote: NO
  24. Yeah thats what I said. It's an observation. I'm going from AAI to DTP, just wonder if this C crew is going to last awhile. Don't over staff the plant than layoff-like they did at AAI.
