dtpm Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Rumor is that Billy boy will be at MTP on Monday the 23rd for A crew and B crew, along with greivance counselers and an appearence by Jennifer Granholm. Any truth to this crazy rumor? I am not sure about that one bud but I talked to someone that has spoken with workers at Wixom and he told me comes monday, they will not even start up. Something that might have to do with the future of that plant before they tell everyone. I wonder if they may do the broadcast out at that place. They have the room for it and they have had big announcements before. Does anyone know where it is going to be. Just wondering... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_wizard Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 (edited) I saw him at Burger King with Ron Gettelfinger and the King himself Elvis. They were trying to decide which way he wanted Elvis to sing the song for Mondays meeting. I thought i heard them decide upon opening with Ron and the King singing We’re caught in a trap I can’t walk out Because I love you too much baby Why can’t you see What you’re doing to me When you don’t believe a word I say? We can’t go on together With suspicious minds And we can’t build our dreams On suspicious minds So, if an old friend I know Drops by to say hello Would I still see suspicion in your eyes? Here we go again Asking where I’ve been You can’t see these tears are real I’m crying We can’t go on together With suspicious minds And be can’t build our dreams On suspicious minds Oh let our love survive Or dry the tears from your eyes Let’s don’t let a good thing die When honey, you know I’ve never lied to you Mmm yeah, yeah and then Bill and Elvis would close with this version Every time you kiss me I’m still not certain that you love me, Every time you hold me I’m still not certain that you care Though you keep on saying you really, really, really love me Do you speak the same words to someone else when I’m not there. Suspicion torments my heart, Suspicion keeps us apart, Suspicion why torture me. Every time you call me and tell me we should meet tomorrow I can’t help but think that you’re meeting someone else tonight, Why should our romance just keep on causing me such sorrow? Why am I so doubtful whenever you’re out of sight? Suspicion torments my heart, Suspicion keeps us apart, Suspicion why torture me. Darling, if you love me, I beg you wait a little longer, Wait until I drive all these foolish fears out of my mind, How I hope and pray that our love will keep on growing stronger, Maybe I’m suspicious ‘cause true love is so hard to find. Suspicion torments my heart, Suspicion keeps us apart, Suspicion why torture me. and then pink slips and ballons fall from the ceiling i heard LOL Edited January 20, 2006 by the_wizard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTP_UAW Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 The announcement will neither be about plant closings, layoffs nor buyouts. Billy's Boys have decided that the "Way Foreward" plan will be code-named "If You Build it They Will Buy it". Therefore, beginning with the afternoon shift of 1-23-2006 ALL PLANTS WILL BE ON A MANDATORY 7/12 schedule with no breaks. :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_wizard Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Should there be plant closings and pink slips I would just like to announce an opportunity to buy in at the ground level of an exciting new Franchise called “ Way Forward Boxes LLC. “ The Deadline for new orders is midnight Saturday for Ford workers to get in on this, (we need time to ship you, you’re start up kits). We supply all sizes of boxes and something we are very excited about in this years line up for just two dollars extra we’ll put your name on the boxes with Glitter! Bling Bling They make great gifts for that special friend that just lost his job or that boss who’s walking out the door for the last time. And for all those that find out their plant is not closing or they will not be getting laid off We have T- Shirts with a silhouette of a person, bull’s-eye on their chest with one hand raised defiantly with the words in bold print “ YA MISSED ME BITCH †And if your salary and you didn’t get to lay off the workers you wanted to we have a shirt for too! It has a picture of the Terminator on it, Pink slips in his hands saying, “ I’ll be back “ Of course all of our products are American made and we donate a small amount of every sale to Junior Achievers of China LLC that’s right young kids who always wanted to grow up and be a capitalist pig.

fordmomma Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 The rumor here is that old Billy boy will be at SLAP to make the announcement. Whoever believes that is going to be dissappointed in my opinion. I don't think little Billy will be anywhere near any of the plants. I think he's too scared of the employees he plans on screwing.

Albert Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Personally, I would 'speculate' if Billy does make the announcement from a particular plant, it won't be one that's closing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2KGT Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 We heard that Bill Jr. is flying around to all the GEN Pool sites to hand out buyout checks and tell everyone goodbye. No work. No pay. No benefits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 But Wizard I was hoping that Bill was going to sing his show stopping special "These Boots Are Made FORD Walking" (as in they'll walk right over the employees). I want one of the "Missed Me Ya Bitch" shirts. I've been saying for years that I should wear a shirt with a target so that no innocent by-standers are caught in the crossfire. Just remember this, zig and zag, duck and roll and a moving target is harder to miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any truth to this crazy rumor? If Bill Ford is at MTP then he has good news for you and everyone should be thrilled. He will not be anywhere near any of the plants that will get bad news.

Me Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 The real news is that MTP will be building F Series again and on Three Crew by 2010. jdima, I think there's some truth to that. I've been saying here for awhile, that MTP has a future, even though we're running slow now. MTP figures in Ford's future plans; they're going to keep us around. Oh, and BTW, Bill Ford Jr. HAS been to MTP. I know because I got to shake his hand (I addresed him as SIR). Weird, doing your job on the line and literally turning around and seeing THE Bill Ford Jr. standing there, amid a gang of other big wigs. The first thng I blurted out was "WOW', after which he laughed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
