Thanks for the ping.

I'm familiar with that plant - obviously, it's a union shop.

I don't know much about declining union membership in the US vs. Mexico, but I do know they build a quality refrigerator much cheaper.

I haul freight(fridge doors) out of there.
This non union freight hauler loses another customer.
I also made deliveriers in and out of the Thomposon (old RCA) plant in Marion, Indiana.
Also now closed.
On the other hand I made a lot of deliveries to Home Depot this year!

The US in 100 years will be strictly an R&D country.

Signapore is moving towards that right now. I would place my bets there.

Yes, I recall. I don't pretend to know the mind of God. I just have a trust and faith in Him that He knows what He's doing. ;) Which, gives me hope and optimism no matter what happens.

Hauling freight is a good business. Hope you pick up 2 more customers to the one you lost. Hope things go well with you.
