Probably explains why back in the day when I bought a 2003 Cobra my car was delivered with the passenger side fender misaligned because some one didn't tighten the inside bolt till it aligned properly. Took 1 minute to correct but still that should have never left the line let alone final QC. Even better was the 2 bolts connecting the IRS cradle to the body. They used 12 mm when 14 mm was required. It's why some 03/04 Cobras had a "clunk" sound.
Loved the car and had a lot of fun with it but little things from stupidity makes one wary about another one.

Yeah, the Walton family bore all the risk in starting the company and expanding it the way that they did, so there is nothing wrong with them getting the most money. The cashier doesn't deserve executive money. Walmart also offers paid paternity and maternity leave.

They pay them $10 to watch you check yourself out? As long as the self checks don't go on strike we'll be fine.

I doubt that will end well. As far as pay, there’s a reason why unions have power. The fought for it when businesses made record profits and paid employees penny’s in shitty conditions.

Labor had a good deal to bring jobs back to Lordstown and rejected it.
One of the side effects of this was Falcon Transport and New England Motor Freight shutting down - over two thousand truck drivers and a bunch of office workers. Freight hasn't picked up for a lot of the LTL guys in the rust belt since those companies shut down either. All eyes are on Celadon to be the first mega-carrier to fold, they haul a lot of motor parts and accessories in the rust belt area.

No shite. They have the privilege to work at GM.
Don't like it? Plenty of other jobs out there.
That don't pay as well and don't have comparable benefits.

frick UAW workers and frick GM, Ford, and Chrysler. I never buy American Cars.
Back in the day when I was a bartender I worked at a restaurant/bar right down the street from a Ford Plant. All the Ford baws would come in on their lunch breaks and treat our staff like shite. They would all make up these UAW/Ford Employee discounts that we didn't offer but they would stomp their feet and said we did offer them as its part of their union contract, and how no Ford employee would come in again if we didn't honor it. We were like, good! Don't come back! They were terrible tippers and treated us like shite.
They would also get shithoused drunk on their lunch breaks, and then go back to work. How could you buy a Ford vehicle after seeing that?
Worked at a GM plant in Indiana for 2 years back in early 90's. Saw the same thing there. I had a grievance filed against me by the Union, because needed to move my computer from one side of my desk to the other. When the union told me it would be 3 weeks before they could get to it, I just moved it myself. They got pissed off and filed a grievance. My boss said, don't worry about it, just don't do it again.. Frick the UAW...

Sounds like the local dealership also dropped the ball on the delivery inspection.
It's a Ford though, so....

There really is. The jobs are out there and if you aren't a lazy entitled union employee, go for it.

Quite the few morons in this thread. It should be obvious who I’m talking about.
