Plant Closed LAID OFF GMC FORD grilles bumpers etc.

It's a compilation of a few videos I've taken at work. The message at the end is for all us working Dads and Moms who realize how easily the security of our family can be lost in a matter of days or weeks due to economic shifts. The guy welding and operating the molding machine is myself. As my profile states, at this plant I'm maintenance, machine setup, process technician, toolsetter and a welder! Thats what letting your boss know what you are capable of gets you, 5 jobs one paycheck... In the end this plant closed. It's production represented 10% of all the united states electroplated chrome parts. We supplied major parts and assemblies for the big three in huge quantities. If you drive any chevy truck and it has a chrome bumper me or one of my friends made the grille and bumper that goes on it. We made ALL of the Malibu grilles and hundreds of thousands of parts daily. We could produce 3500 sets of chrome bumper assemblies to fit the New Chevrolet 1500HD pickup per day. The greedy folks in the UAW went on strike and shut the entire GMT900 line down. that was 45 people laid off immediately. That was just our GMT900 line, we had several other lines that also shut down completely or went to very low production when they went on strike. The UAW is going to be in trouble when they don't have any employers to negotiate with because they went defunct. Unions are counter productive and hurtful to almost everyone involved.
