Try reading the details of the exit package being offered. For example, four years at $27,000 per year and college education being completely paid for. This "patriot" thinks this option is better for America than paying $130,000 per year to sweep floors or paying "jobs bank" participants to do nothing.
I owuld like to tell you something I know first hand. On 10-1-2006 a number of salaried employees at GM in Doraville Georiga will lose their jobs-no compensation of any kind except unemployment. My husband was fortunate. He was transferred and last Monday began his job in Janesville wisconsin. Perhaps, you might spare a thought and/or a prayer for these people. They are normal people with kids, mortgages just like you.
