I thought the railheads at LGR were dead, and everything got shipped out of Delta. If the teamsters are backing up the UAW at the sites they are striking, wouldnt that impact Camaro?

@The Zebra, Thanks for reminding, inflation is also a giant subsidy for the markets. Lower incomes keep a higher percent in cash. I'm sticking with calling inflation theft.
I didn't expect to tick you off that much. Meh, the forum is better with some spirit instead. My brother has had a good career so far in medical and defense. I admire him much more than because of a damned job. The country is screwed, can't say we don't deserve it. There's not much of a hurdle between now, and a future where Mary Barra changes up her press announcements - With her hair dyed black, rolling a bearing down a panel gap, saying how proud she is to present the new products from the hands and brainchild of Asian employees. |

I definitely intended to dump on the waxing poetic tone for the profession. (Quick for instance: planned obsolescence). I didn't intend to be taken personally at all, sorry for that.

I have no problem with unions asking for more. I do have a problem GM can’t say no.

It doesn't stop until they go too far and bring down employers. In this case, .gov would likely bail them out again.

In theory they could have destroyed the UAW completely and there wouldn’t have been a damn thing they could do. The best would be to claim what they could from the scraps of the Motor Liquidation Company then either find new employment at another company or re-apply for their old job at the new GM in a completely non-union operation. Then you know who was elected. That ended any chance of that happening.

Working for an automotive manufacturer in the south, the UAW seems odd to me. It eliminates a competitive work force which drives wages up naturally and imo, fairly. Employers in my area compete for the local workforce with wages and benefits. Talent goes where the money is, like any other industry. This gives power to the general workforce, not just the skill trades.
That being said, I DO believe that the UAW served a great purpose a long time ago.

I have never seen or heard that song. Very cool, thanks for sharing!
Interesting tidbit, in a modern auto manufacturer, At least 90% of those processes shown in the video are automated now.
