10yrs_No_Seniority

Cutoff date is 3/3/98.

I guess the posting went up at other plants too, the list here at MAP is about 80-90 ish...

Update: The LTP bid was posted today, looks like about 80 to 90 ppl leaving for Livonia. I heard the first wave is first week of February. MAP is short right now, so I would imagine they'll be calling ppl back.(?)

I know some 3/26's came back, I don't think any 4/2's have.

I explained it in my second post. And the only thing temporary about working those years were the Ford acronyms. We were strung along with the possibility of full-time employment with nearly every new assignment. And even flat-out lied to about being "grandfathered" in after the '07 contract. We were definitely taken advantage of.

Nope, not impossible, and there are hundreds more in the same boat. Ford TFT, TPT, SuperTemp, LTS, etc.., laid us off & re-hired us, until finally in 2012 they made us Entry Level Employees. (after rolling back our wages a second time)

Tier 2, here. I've been paying dues and working for Ford for over 13 years now. I'm still not at full pay.

Oh, I think you meant DTP? The same newsletter said they have 285 LTS's. 180 were recently converted to Entry Level, so maybe if they replace the 26, 1 for 1, there will be like 131 openings? Does that make sense? It's looking more and more like Flat Rock everyday...

No, sorry. I have no idea. I would guess those 26 (if they choose to return to Livonia) are part of that 400 number that's being thrown around. (?)

I still get the Local 600 newsletter from DTP and it said they were canvassing 26 to return to Livonia.

It won't allow me to attach the pic. It's a letter saying the union has been unable to get the company to sit down and talk the details or steps that need to be taken. The # of ppl to be effected is 673. The union wants to reduce that number, the company hasn't responded.

This was passed out today from the union, signed Bill Johnson. It makes no mention of specific #'s or cut-off dates.

Yup, it's in the newspapers before it's posted. Nice.

Remember, C-crew only costs half. The price of a Focus never dropped. If orders spike, their bases are covered instead of paying A&B $45 & $60 in overtime. Also, the State of MI. is picking up the tab for the majority of the downtime(?). I also believe there is new product heading to MAP, that will necessitate C-crew again. Also, I think our small cars are federally mandated in some way against the amount of large trucks Ford builds. Sorry my reply is all over the MAP. lol, I really don't know why they do anything except for $$$.

2 Tier here. I've been working and paying dues for 13 yrs now. I'm currently making about the same as I did when I started and had COLA. ($17.50) I had earned my way up to $26 twice, before the company laid me off & then rehired me. There is nothing fair about having 8 yrs vested and earning a new hire salary.
