“Rumors have been rampant at the plant that Butterball isn’t planning on shutting down in Longmont permanently, the men said. Speaking through an interpreter, they said word has gone around since 2008 that Butterball wants to sever ties with the long-term employees at the plant — and the extra vacation time and benefits they have earned for their tenure — and start over with all new workers, non-union workers...”

You knew there would be a union angle in there somewhere, and an immigration angle....

I heard Butterball wants to re-open this plant somewhere else, with ALL moslem workers.

Apparently moslem workers are more experienced slaughtering Thanksgiving turkeys in accordance with Butterball’s new HALAL-only policy.

Well I have been working since I was about 12 years old(part time jobs at that time)and I have only been fired once. It was my last job, which was non-Union, and I was making well over 100 grand a year(and doing an excellent job, BTW, according to my immediate superior) and I was fired for making to much money. They didn’t come right out an admit it, but the top 3 earners were fired and no one else. luckily I was only 1 year away from retirement because when you’re over 60 you don’t get hired by anyone.
