The UAW worked out so well for Detroit. I just can’t imagine why anyone wouldn’t want them in Tennessee!

they (organizers) won't get into the cKY Toyoda Plant in G'town, there are some (fmr.) L'ville unionist thugs,
in mfg. @ TMMK...they whisper how great the union was, we'd laugh @ them, really pissed 'em off.

I worked at a packing plant in Schuyler, Nebraska in the early 80’s. I joined the union since I had a good wage. Not long after I quit, the company told the union to take a $2 an hour cut.

Union advised employees that the company would fold and rejected the cut. They padlocked the doors until the contract broke and hired people back at $5 less an hour.

All those people that had brand new pickups...it was insane.
