I turned down the buy-out, due to the fact it was stated, very clearly, I might add, "once you break service with FOMOCO, you cannot return to the company!!!!!!!!" Seemed prety clear to me, so I stayed with the Titanic :titanic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methos Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I turned down the buy-out, due to the fact it was stated, very clearly, I might add, "once you break service with FOMOCO, you cannot return to the company!!!!!!!!"Seemed prety clear to me, so I stayed with the Titanic :titanic: "cannot return to the company" Oh boy, that would be a real heartbreaker <LMAO>. I mean c'mon, it is always nice to know your options, but if you are worried about coming back, maybe you shouldn't leave. After taking the buyout, I believe there is a five year no return clause, but after that you get preferential status if you apply for a job. That is if they are still around. They still have the FAQ posted at the Ford Employee site, and if you are not able to access it no longer, let me know, I can email it or some reasonable facsimile.

TexasBound Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I turned down the buy-out, due to the fact it was stated, very clearly, I might add, "once you break service with FOMOCO, you cannot return to the company!!!!!!!!"Seemed prety clear to me, so I stayed with the Titanic :titanic: Who are you quoting? Because your info is dead wrong. based on the buyout papers I signed it's stated that you can get hired back into Ford. But for 5 years you cannot take another buyout. What are the odds of another one coming? Here's what it says under the step program. "If an eligible employee has recieved a STEP payment and is subsequently rehired by the Company, the employee will not be eligible for any future STEP payments until the employee has 5 or more years of seniority following such rehire. No seniority used to determine the amount of a previous STEP payment shall be used in determining a subsequent STEP payment." There it is in black and white from Ford Motor. So I think you should stop listening to bob at the vending machine and research a little before spewing out fake quotes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't seem to understand....If I took the 100k, retired and returned to my old job.....I would be makeing approx $35 per hr, includeing my retirement and the $18. ph for the job..........vs the $26.39 I get now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpmaster Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 We have heard at our plant that anybody that retires will not be rehired. Add that rumor to the fact that all flowbacks and transfers will need to be placed before you could be rehired, and your plan doesn't look good. At Indy, at least two people, who took buyouts last year, started work today as TFT's. Also, at least two skilled tradespeople took physicals to come back on production after they retire (one was told he could start right away). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
