I used to love GM. Now, GM is dead to me.

I wouldn’t be shocked at all if the soul reason they’re doing this is to hurt Trump.

If they move production outside the U.S. hit ‘em hard with tariffs! These plant closings by Government motors seems politically motivated. The economy is doing very well.

304,000 new Jobs were added in January.

The 4,000 Laid Off Employees should be able to find new Jobs in no time.

I wonder what their Severance Packages look like?

The last American made car I bought was a 1990 Olds. Shortly after I came to realize that the UAW was an enemy of this country. But I do find it sad to see what's happened to the US car industry.

Every time I think I might want to give GM another chance, they give me a reason to keep away from their dealerships. And that stinks, because I really like the Malibu and Colorado.

I was doing some contract work in San Diego for a Ford/Qualcomm joint venture in 2001. Ford management held a meeting where they made it clear that white males would not be considered for any promotions or raises. It was supposed to be a "closed door" meeting where the brass could privately scheme. Too bad. One of the participants leaked the news and it spread like wildfire through the company. The white male engineers are the backbone at Ford. Huge mistake. It was met with a collective "F*ck Y**!" back to the management. Qualcomm called back a large number of their staff (away from the joint venture). I was left covering the duties of 4 Java programmers, 2 C++ programmers and 2 EEs. That ran up an average 210 hours per month. My work was complete by Dec 2001. About 6 weeks later, the Qualcomm engineer I left in charge of the lab called to say the venture was over. Employees were getting escorts by security to their desks to pick up personal effects on the way out.
