Just another step towards GM’s inevitable death and rebirth… as a division of Toyota.

lol.

what the fuck are they trying to accomplish by going on strike yet again. How fucking retarded is it to bring a hurting company farther down when that is your livelihood. Gotta love the UAW. They’ll never stop bitching.

EDIT- this is yet another reason why Toyota is not going to crash and burn the way GM is. They have managed to keep unions out of there this long and it doesn’t look like they’ll ever get in. Some people just don’t know how fucking great they have it. I was amazed to work next to people who never even graduated high school, yet are making about 100K a year and still fucking bitch. The work ethic in this continent is absolutely pathetic.

This is like a last ditch effort for the UAW.

That’s it. You can’t dress as Picard for halloween. It has to be Picard. Eating bacon. Yep. I know you’re thinking it too. In the shower.

Granted at that point your costume will seem absolutely fucktarded to anyone not on NYSpeed, but people not on here are irrelavent.

i cant say i feel bad for GM exec’s

get the workers to help save money, then get millions in bonus money.

although, if the tonawanda plant closes, my taxes would go up…  
they pay a shitload of property taxes 🙂
