In a study for GM it found in the 90's American workers were transient in Canada we had a work force with average 24 years of service in America it was 7 years in all GM plants.

This was the first Saturn plant and a blessing to the South , times have proven the Population wants cars from anyone but GM Ford and Chrysler . This is a sad day for the South but you watch Toyota and Honda shut their plants TOO.

UAW's 'legacy' at GM by lokki

Here's an interesting article for those who don't understand how the UAW's approach killed the golden goose...
 
It's also worth noting that this article appeared in the newspaper for a city that used to be famous for its steel mills.... until the same "Union is more important than the Company" put them all out of business in the 70's

>"I agree with your remarks and never was a wizard at typing either I have a problem getting anything across to Americans at the best of times . Please forgive me ! but what you see is what you get and for 70 it can't be that bad"
 
Your post continuously bash Americans,especially those in the South. Have you ever really lived in the USA?
 
Don't blame age for your communication problems. I'm 2 years behind you and still understand how to punctuate and create a sentence that most can comprehend. Of course the difference could be I've always had to think for myself. No UAW or CAW to do that for me. No short cuts or doing things, just good or bad enough to get by. That seemed to be the mindset of the assembly workers that built the last several UAW/CAW cars I owned ! Last one was a 98 Ram.
 
No reason to think their mind set has changed. Especially since they may have to make some concessions.
 
When someone talks sloppy and writes sloppy, chances are good they do other things that way.
