Working From Home - Another Reason Why!
GM Workers Face Possible Strike!
It really is a sad thing when your job security is dependent on someone or something else. In this case it being the company that you work for.
Such was not the case in the past where when you had a job you would have that same job until you retired.
The one interesting thing about this is if the workers do go on strike they will receive $200 a week in "strike" pay - that's the first time I have ever heard of someone being paid to be on strike. But since this is such a big union the funds to be able to pay such a salary is probably coming out of the membership dues that the workers are paying to the union.
