on you tube there is a video that shows you how to shove a canadian nickel in the gas pedal assembly so that it acts like a shim.

how scary is that?
It's always darkest before the dawn.  So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.

The Troll

I get so sick of nonunion people slamming the union workers.  You are reading what a 38 year Auto worker is writing and I will say two things.  THANK GOD FOR FORD MOTOR CO. AND THE UAW.  For you people who never worked in a union shop you don't know your butt from a hole in the ground.

   People who knock the union never has never worked on assembly line, never worked in a scab plant absolutely know nothing about how bad these plants can be.  When I first went to work at Ford  and nobody has his 90 day in and there were no union.  You can't believe the slave driving S.O.B's can treat you and the other people in the plant.

  I have seen man get his hands caught in the fixtures on the assembly line and be made to walk along the line while the machine repairmen was working to get his hand out.  Then at the last second the foreman reach up and pull the line that stopped the fixture before dropped down into the return cycle.  Dirty, smoky, no fresh air.  It sorta like your on one of those sail rowboats where the drummer beat the rhythm and the guy with the whip beat the rowers.

  Ford was a good company to work for.  It was the S.O.B's they hired that made the job bad and unsafe.  You really can't believe the total stupidity of the supervision we sometimes had.  Without the union working can really be hell.  You know, that if  the companies had have treated the workers like the humans.  THERE WOULD BE NOT BE UNIONS.  Honda and Toyota have no unions.  because they know that if they didn't treat their worker right, there was the UAW looking to come in if they didn't and they tried real hard to keep that from happening.

   Now Toyota is leaving the United States and going to where the wages are lower.  Leaving a pool of Toyota car owners, so the can suck every dollar, every quarter, every dime, nickle and every penny out of this country,  Maybe the Jap didn't win World War II  they are sure winning now and the American people are helping them.  Doesn't it make you heart beat hard and you pride swell for you country when it come on television and say, HONDA THE #1 SELLING CAR IN AMERICA.  It must make the foreign car buyers feel real good.

  Ford seen the foreign car invasion come for along time and they have plan for it.  If you didn't notice it, Ford didn't take any bailout money and we have four cars in the top ten and we have the #1 sales leader the Ford F-150 pickup truck.  American workers can do it and the American UAW auto workers can do it.  Enough said.

The Troll  ;D ;D :biggrin:
