Although the decision to inform a workforce of 1,400 employees that they'll soon be losing their jobs to Mexico is an admirable one from the standpoint of candor, it hardly makes for a good recipe for workplace morale.
A cell phone video taken at Carrier Air Conditioner in Indianapolis shows the exact moment that the plant and union workers were told that the company had decided to shift production south of the border.
"The best way to stay competitive and protect the business for longterm is to move production from our facility in Indianapolis to Monterrey, Mexico," says the company representative at the microphone.
Although the change would not take effect until 2017, the reactions from the gathered restless crowd were telling.

If I blindfolded you and dropped you in the middle of either Indianapolis or Columbus, I defy you to tell the difference.
His company is headquartered in NYC not Mexico City and he owns properties not factories. Many, many of them in the USA where he employs tens of thousands of people.
And even if he is.
The EPA efficiency regulations to fight climate change has caused some of this too.
And I suppose the Hi-Tech workers that are being replaced are ‘Commie Union workers” also? Yeah, damn those American workers wanting a Decent wage...
Does that make it OK?
Yeah cause Trump doesnt have any foreign business interests.
Are you really that dense on sound business tenets? What an embarrassing post.
As you’ve been schooled....Trump did not take American jobs to other countries...in fact, he employed even MORE Americans, by STARTING locations overseas...more admin, accounting, purchasing support required.
This was a YUGE punch in the gut to these American workers, 1,400++ of them, who’ve now lost their jobs. And, all you have is your inaccurate and insensitive post about Trump’s business interests??
Jeeaaaazzz.
"U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly says the head of the Carrier Corporation could not point to one federal regulation which the company says was responsible for its decision to relocate facilities in Indianapolis and Huntington to Mexico."
If a Free Traitors™ tells you this had to do with taxes and regulation tell them to stuff it.
as you sew, so shall you reap
if you can’t compete, you will loose your job
nah....they are all union democrats
“U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly says the head of the Carrier Corporation could not point to one federal regulation which the company says was responsible for its decision to relocate facilities in Indianapolis and Huntington to Mexico.”
“U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly says the head of the Carrier Corporation could not point to one federal regulation which the company says was responsible for its decision to relocate facilities in Indianapolis and Huntington to Mexico.”
Why didn’t the company move to a right to work state instead!!!! Immigrants will be fleeing back over the border all of our jobs will be there!!!
Yeah, let the America worker ‘Compete with $2 a day Asian or $20 a day Mexican labor. They could always live in cardboard boxes outside the plant, and eat scarps the bosses throw away.
So Carrier moved to Mexico instead of the South or mid-west? This is a suck ass move to exploit wetbacks in their own narco terrorist country.
I’m not sure I get your point.
But, is the idea that Trump would have federal regulations on who the company could hire and where?
Indiana is a RTW state.
They don't have to but they should pay a heavy duty to import their product back into America.
Yep, that’s the democrat plan.
