No shit!? My neighbor is on the news…channel 2 and 7. Im surrounded by GM UAW workers…and Im not one of them. A few of them admit that they are blessed/lucky, whatever for being able to be able to get the pay, benefits, and the lack of work that they have to do for the $28hr. What gets me is, the people that think they “deserve” that $28hr. for doing a money’s job and say that they can not adjust to a lower pay which would benefit their future. They would rather bleed the company dry and leave it for dead before they try to help. I can understand sacrifice…believe me I can. These people are gonna shit when they kill this company and then need to find a job with there qualifications…as assemblers. They’re going to see the harsh reality that in the ~other~ world outside of GM you only get paid $8-$14hr. to do assembly work. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/gm-on-strike-as-of-11am/35866)._
