kcworker Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Was just wondering if your local is telling you that DTP will be the only plant producing F-150's when you return to work in September? I've seen a lot of talk about it in some of the other topics on here and was just wondering if it's speculation or if it's something your local has said to be true? Thanks.

Nobody knows for sure, hell your union tells you more about our plant than our own union does. Maybe that will be in the July announcement about what is going where and who is going to build what... :shrug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell, it's all speculation. Heck.... we learned we were losing a shift from Kansas City, then Ford press release, then finally OUR union confirmed it. If our union actually knows anything, they sure aren't telling anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatso Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 (edited) It is all customer driven.Maybe once people get used to $4.00 a gallon gas,when the housing market recovers {it always does}Maybe a Democratic President {forgive me} will institute a public works project to build our nation`s infrastructure.It is all customer driven.Meantime SEND ME SOME BARBECUE!!!!!!Best we got out here in Michigan is Famous Dave`s Edited June 21, 2008 by Fatso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lquidspine Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 As was stated seems we need to listen to KCAP people since we get more information from them than we get from our own. Maybe the Bodyshop and DSP wont cancel this monthes union meeting like they did last month so we can get afterthought information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talan423 Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Can anybody in KC tell me how i can get a subsrcription to that KC newspaper sent to me up here in Dearborn? I need to know more details about what's going on with my job at DTP! What a bunch of no talent ass-clowns i work for.... the best you can tell me is to "watch the news"...... now there's a reliable source of info. My future is jammed in between stories about a bunch of teenagers pregnant in Massachusettes and Jamie Lynn Spears had her baby... BFD!!!! This is the way you treat your employees? This is the biggest joke of a company i have ever worked for. Our CEO is one of the highest paid in the country, no wonder the stock fell below $6/share and is headed lower. Oh I forgot... we have to pay these guys this much money to "Retain The Talent". If this is the talent we're all in BIG trouble!!!!! WHAT A JOKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tincup2b Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I don't want to say anything is for sure but I can almost assure you that DTP will not get the F100 production. Then again who knows what direction the great "Oracle" Mullaly will take us in. You say that they have already broke ground on the new body shop? Must be nice. All they are telling us here at KCAP is that it is on hold. They have been looking at a new paint shop for the SUV side as well but I'm hearing that it is to expensive to build. Sure would like to see a new body shop underway. I guess all of us at KCAP should just be patient since our new body shop was negotiated into the contract. LOL. Good luck to everyone. Maybe we will get lucky and Americans will start buying AMERICAN again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no new body shop at DTP.Look it is all customer driven.I am not a truck man but doesn`t Kansas City build a different type of truck than DTP?Anyways I don`t care who wins anymore.I show up reliably,do what they say and that is all I can do.I look around and I see hundreds of serious people doing exactly what I am doing.Canada has political clout with the CAW.Mexico and Brazil are third world countries and I agree with you Americans hate each other.

All I know is the last couple days they have been all over the plant taking pictures like hell! I saw them have a forklift loaded with frames stop at the entrance door and take several pictures of that and also of the trucks driven off the end of the line. I'm thinking major retooling is gonna go on! Maybe so we can build all the platforms of the f150. But who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know you ned to calm down first off. Nick is a good guy and I can't wait till he takes his spot in july which really would not matter since we will be off but he will be working while we are off. He did alot of good a wixom and to roast a guy that puts in 110% of his time to give any information he has is sad on your part. You need to forget about the old union that will be gone soon. I have not seen my union rep since he won the election but I see nick almost every night and he is not my committee guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope things get better when he does take office Look, don't get your hopes up too much with newly elected officials. Right now a few plants have them/getting them. And they are going to be in a reactive mode. There is only so much they can do. They have to react to reductions and try to mitigate them as best as possible. But best of luck to everyone.. It's gonna get worse, before it gets better. Try to work with the new ones and offer what help you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenhawkings Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 what happened to KC losing a shift or being shut down before we lose a shift? or is KC history? F-series is no longer the best selling vehicle, so it looks like things that were thought to never happen have happened, is toyota opening a plant near michigan anytime soon?
