Uh, no. You went on strike to destroy the company once, you won’t get the chance to do it a second time.

Nobody with half a brain wants to buy a union controlled company.

Someone should manufacture bumper stickers saying ‘Lost your job? Thank a Union!’.

I would put that on my car. And I detest bumper stickers on cars, especially my car.

Hmmm, are they now HOPING for Bain to step in? To bad the winner of the election spent the last 4 years demonizing “the rich.” Now these slaves get to reap the whirlwind, no matter which candidate won their votes!

“Former employees of Hostess Brands Inc. are now hoping that a buyer will save pieces of the liquidating company and put them back to work.”

Unionism is a mental disorder.

any buyer would be a fool to take former employees with their unions back.

If I bought Hostess I'd pack the whole shebang up and move it all to a right-to-work state.



Then I'd start makin' Twinkies and Ding-Dongs like there was no tomorrow!

It would be kind of fun to see a rash of Baker’s Unions members being lynched by those in the other unions that were willing to make concessions to keep their jobs. It’s not like union members haven’t been trained for that kind of mischief.

Good luck getting your job back!... If Grupo Bimbo were to take over, the company could potentially take food production to Mexico and take advantage of lower priced sugars and raw materials costs.

Unfortunately, even if Grupo Bimbo were to keep Hostess alive, the operational shift to Mexico will mean that the majority of the 18,500 Hostess employees will not get their job back.

Why would they want to go back to work when they have Obama and the union looking out for them?

After spending a weekend enjoying a break from all the pressure that had them relived to lose their jobs, former workers are hopeful someone will swoop in and save their jobs. Guess they finally figured out that the satellite dish and the roof it was attached to were soon to be gone. No more BET, CNN, MSLSD, plumbing, electric, Twinkies.
Hate to break it to the morons, but anyone could find enough $9.00 employees to make a stinking twinkie, and be grateful.

Hostess employees hope buyers will put them back to work

Hey, union employees, how's Obama's hopium working out for you, huh? Hope you had a real fun high while it lasted.

So I guess the over $700 million in loans Hostess is burdened with had nothing to do with the shutdown . . . or the 80% raises for management?

yup, iam sure there’s a long list of folks somewhere in imagination land lining up and thinking “why i just can’t wait to buy hostess and employ all the people who shut it down.”

libtard wet dreams. all their schemes still require someone else’s money to save them.

Screw ‘em. They had a chance at employment and blew it.

Hire some kids out out of cooking schools.

CBS radio news just said that the union and Hostess have reached an agreement and the 18,000 jobs are saved.

I hope they get bought and only re-established in right to work states. Deprive the union states of twinkies or sell them at a price reflecting the transportation to get them there.
