Trump’s claims about jobs saved at Carrier come into question
« on: December 06, 2016, 06:57:46 pm »
Oops. It looks to just be a reshuffling and they are still moving jobs to Mexico.

Quote
....“We found out today that more jobs are leaving than what we originally thought,” [Carrier worker T.J. Bray, who’s also a communications rep for the union] said. “It seemed like since Thursday, it was 1,100 [jobs saved] then it was maybe 900 and then now we’re at 700. So I’m hoping it doesn’t go any lower than that.”

Union workers got a letter at the plant saying Trump’s deal with Carrier will save only 730 factory jobs in Indianapolis, plus 70 salaried positions – 553 jobs in the plant’s fan coil lines are still moving to Monterrey, Mexico. All 700 workers at Carrier’s Huntington plant will also lose their jobs......

They get favors and they end up sending more jobs to Mexico than planned. Trump lied, jobs died.

Trump couldn't negotiate a menstrual cycle if they gave him a life time supply of Tampons.

But he would take credit for someone else creating them.

This is what populism is all about.  Huey Long is jealous.

I hope no one accidentally slips him a copy of Directive 10-289 without context to it.

A business working around the rules. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.  :whistle:

“The way I see it, every time a man gets up in the morning he starts his life over. Sure, the bills are there to pay, and the job is there to do, but you don't have to stay in a pattern. You can always start over, saddle a fresh horse and take another trail.” ― Louis L'Amour
