I don’t hate, actually. I just with people would step up a bit more and take responsibility for themselves. When my wife is told by union representatives that if she doesn’t do LESS work, the union would find a way to get her fired, then you know something is very wrong with employee motivation. Apparently, my wife was working so efficiently that she made the union employees look bad. Honestly, there should be no reason that a union should feel the need to do that. I know work is tough, but it’s not supposed to be easy. There should be rests and things, but why stop someone from being efficient? That’s what many unions do today – stop efficiency in the name of fairness. And that just is not fair to the employees, the company, and the customers.

400, I have no doubt that you are a hard worker. There are just some very bad apples that are ruining it for everyone, and you should hate those as much as the next guy.

You forget, Yard Dog, that you have to take a break every 30 minutes to prevent MSDs.

I think the movie Office Space explains it best when he says, “You know, Bob, that kind of motivation will make someone do just enough to not get fired.”

And before any one says the QUALITY OF CARS, if you get paid $35.00 an hour, come on how hard is it to do the same thing over and over again the right way????

Honestly UAW member should be happy the even have a job, after seeing all this drama for the past 2 years or so, with the unions, I’m surprise to see how the U.S. auto makers are still in business and then they wonder why Nissan and Toyota wont let them in there U.S. plants…

Why don’t they bring some of the much better-engineered/ less boring Mitsubishi they sell oversea and have it built here. It’s a dying brand unless they do something dramatic and build cars people wants to buy.

Does that mean their quality goes up if they’re running under what they’re capable of?
