Chrysler says to shut down all production for month
Wed Dec 17, 2008 6:27pm EST
Just heard that. The primary reason is because of inflated inventory
of unsold cars.
Interestingly, union workers will still be paid while they stay home,
per their contract.
The Chrysler CEO was just interviewed on CNN. He stated that unless
the government comes through soon with a bridge loan (bailout) that
Chrysler will most likely bypass Chapter 11 and go directly to Chapter
7 liquidation.
Ford has also announced production cutbacks.
Detroit is putting the pressure on the government to do something.

That's the employee's fault how? You did whatever. Auto workers applied
for auto mfg jobs. You resent anyone that labors, for a living getting
an adequate wage. In your world only stock swindlers and gamblers are
entitled to a decent living. Wall Street and Washington designed
what we
get. Wall Street, ICE, and Global Banking swindlers and loan sharks
made
the mess we are in. We bailed them out and the game continues. We are
waiting on the bill and can't afford a car and the bill too especially
when the jobs and technologies are no win India, China etc. They are
getting wage slave labor and they are reintroducing it to us, part time
no benefits, of course, for remaining jobs. The Hamptons and other in
spots are rocking, with our bailout money. Everybody else is waiting on
our Elected Officials to rectify the corruption and bring back America.
It ain't happening. They are just trying, to secure the Scoundrels
future, that did this to us. They otherwise are keeping silent because
they haven't got balls and an idea, of what to do, because it might
offend the Offenders. Welcome to Feudalism, of Globalism. We are about
to get an interjection, of Socialism, for us but they offenders are not
affected, that can bee seen yet. Neither one is what the Republic is
about. Quite bitching about losing at the table. Yale might be offering
remedial course on giving your cash, to the right Investment Banker and
which table, to play.
No one is owed a job for life.

If you give a days labor you get paid for a days labor. That's it.-

This coming from a sock puppet... Whos probably never worked for a
days wages...... Too stupid to get a Union Job...so he's totally
against Unions.


Actually, he doesn't really have a job. He's an "at-will" employee, a
day worker, as it were, with no benefits whatsoever.

What benefits do I need? I take responsibility for my current needs and
my future needs.

Figures. Now it's all starting to make some sense.
Hopefully you are not employed by Chrysler or GM.
You may soon need to acquire some social skills and manners for your
job interviews.

He can become a "Repo Man".

To each his own. I am thankful for my many years of union membership and
the fact that I kept it up even though I haven't worked at my skilled
union trade for a long, long time. I've paid for my benefits, but thanks
to collective effort, they are far superior and at a lower price than I
could have purchased individually. Plus, they have been "portable," and
not related to payroll employment I have had since.

The pension I will be getting if ever I put in for it will be small, but
the health benefits all these years have been first-rate.

The best financial decision I ever made was the day after I realized for
certain "the stock market" was a fraud. I got almost entirely out of the
market then, and haven't looked back. Some of my buddies took a real
bath in their 401k accounts, and I feel for them.

I'm friendly with the head of investments at one of the international
union pension funds. They stopped investing in stocks about 25 years ago
because no matter what they bought, someone complained about the
corporation's behavior. I'm not familiar with their portfolio, but I do
know they keep well ahead of liabilities for their current and future
defined benefit pension holders.

Here's a serious question for you. All of the dealers around here are
busting at the seams with 08 and 09 cars. Some places will give you a
free car if you buy one. They won't take trades unless they can
wholesale them out. So where are you "hauling" all these new cars that
are falling off the assembly lines? When and if GM gets infused with
free bailout money, what are they going to do with it? Cant build many
more new cars till they find some buyers somewhere. Can't use it for
retooling. They don't have new designs ready for market. Can't pay out
ridiculous bonuses. We're watching now. They could throw it away on
union benefits to the union folks that don't need to come to work
anymore because of layoffs. Only problem with that is there is no return
on investment. Folks that are at will employees are having a hard time
with that idea. Why should they pay the union guy 95% of his pay for
doing nothing when they are working 2 or 3 jobs to keep their own heads
above water?
Sorry! The time of unions is over. Update your CV.

Aren't you eligible to piggy back on your "wife'/Significant other's"
benefit plan? Does her union recognize domestic partnerships for benefit
programs?

Well, that certainly makes you an expert on U.S. car manufacturing
business, eh?
