" Ford is also running into resistance from its unionized work force
as it tries to cut costs further.
Its improving fortunes were the main reason cited by the United
Automobile Workers on Monday for rejecting another round of labor
concessions that would have roughly matched concessions that workers
at Chrysler and General Motors approved in the spring."
The U.A.W.'s president, Ron Gettelfinger, and its vice president in
charge of the Ford unit, Bob King, said in a statement that the
carmaker's third-quarter profit was "evidence of the contributions
that Ford workers have made.""

Why should they cave to demands from management? How about producing decent
products that people want to buy?

lol lol


Ford is producing America's best vehicles. Their corporate leadership
has put them into a strong position, not having to take any bailout
money.

Funny how the union thugs always blame a struggling company on the
management, but in this case, the union wants to take credit for
management's success. Freakin' union leeches.

Union management is the most corrupt entity in big business... right
behind Chicago politics.


Don't forget the Harvard insiders. GM, Chrylser and Obama are all from
Harvard. And you wonder why SOX is up Wagoner for the bad GM
financials. Corporate corruption has a lot to do with this also. Tell
me a CEO like Wagoner cared? Cared about $12M year, treated like a
prince, and $20 pension -- for golf and execu-jeting.

$12 CEO pays for a lot of labour and materials. Most companies don't
get the value return. Many of these idiots can't even read!
