bigphish Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 This is just a warning, if you are thinking about transferring to FRAP they have around a thousand members with 20+ years of seniority. If you want days you will be in trim & final. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Large number of the membership were hired in 1987 and 1988. Plus we had a good number come from other plants when the Mustang moved to the plant, many of which had higher senority than we did. I would estimate that 60% plus, are 24 years and higher. Some of us left, but not all that many. Its not a scare tactic...it is reality for that particular plant. Ok...you guys caught it...I fixed the dates...Damned fat finger syndrome....lol Edited February 7, 2013 by trailfndr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be a lot of people retiring in the next ten years. So if you have 10 to 15 years in, you'll be top dog in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious if the people with 1897 seniority are gonna retire anytime soon, I mean if they have not got all there ducks in a row in 116 years working at Ford they should just give up! Flat rock must have some good jobs at that plant to keep people from retiring with that much time in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
