I apologize if this offends any of the Brotherhood who maybe reading this.
As a former UAW employee, I sadly agree. In 1979, I was making $27,000/year plus great benefits plus options plus bonuses. At the age of 19. Gas crunch cometh and Dana shuts down the plant because UAW wouldn't budge on the contract.
'Nuff said?
