What i have to question is this, how much will Chrysler save in two weeks? Is that sume worth the employee loyalty. The more i work the more i think that employer-employee loyalty is very very important.

Think about it, how many of you worked after 5 PM? Many do not mind getting a little extra work done after hours, just to do a good job. But if employer will treat people the way Chrysler wants.....these people will not stay after, will not do anything that is not their direct responcibility, will not do anything they are not payed for,.......will not go that extra mile.]]>Mar 13th 2008 1:16PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/13/chrysler-plans-summer-shutdown-mandatory-vacation-for-workers/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/13/chrysler-plans-summer-shutdown-mandatory-vacation-for-workers/Mar 13th 2008 1:19PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/13/chrysler-plans-summer-shutdown-mandatory-vacation-for-workers/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/13/chrysler-plans-summer-shutdown-mandatory-vacation-for-workers/Mar 13th 2008 1:35PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/13/chrysler-plans-summer-shutdown-mandatory-vacation-for-workers/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/13/chrysler-plans-summer-shutdown-mandatory-vacation-for-workers/
SALARIED is the key word. They still get paid.

most of the actual hourly workers are UAW, so they get paid too.

Besides, July plant shutdowns are normal for the detroit 3. CLLC is just extending it to salaried employees.

Cripes, some people spare no effort looking for doom-and-gloom. I just saw the CNN bit about this, and they made it sound like the company was closing up shop. Morons.]]>Mar 13th 2008 1:38PM
