The soon to be unemployed...
Photo from press conference with union representatives at the union hall in Fond du Lac, Wis., after Mercury Marine union employees voted no, Sunday, Aug. 23, 2009, on the issue of accepting the company's final negotiated offer of reduced wages and benefits. Mercury announced today it will shut down manufacturing in Fond du Lac and consolidate operations at it's Stillwater, Okla., plant in the next 24-36 months.

They better be shutting down Fond Du Lac TODAY or else they will have to quadruple their quality control.
Nothing good comes out of an unhappy union shop....and I can bet any documentation, procedures, etc. that get transferred to OK are going to be full of incorrect / missing information.

I saw this photo on the other thread, do you see any minorities or anyone under 40 in this photo? Generation-X got left out of the union jobs when we got out of High School.
