This fool wants to tie our attendance rate to profit sharing...he really needs to quit smoking crack and increase my hourly rate over the next 4 yrs. I'm all for anything that gets the profit sharing formula closer to the one used during the 90's...but I really wish he would quit talking to the media.

Turns out his dad was a Labor Relations executive for Ford. Makes you wonder whose side hes on. I can make it real simple for him. Raises and/or COLA or I vote HELL NO.

Attendance already plays a BIG role in your profit sharing amount...you don't come to work, profit sharing check smaller...you come to work all the time and work as many hours as you can, profit sharing check bigger. I don't think I want any of the slackers that choose to stay home to affect my profit sharing check.

I don't have a problem with that. Only those with attendance problems have problems with attendance policy issues.

I remember just over 30 yrs ago they had similiar program at edison, NJ....father would bust his butt making perfect attendance for $500.00 . We are truly blessed today! " Thanks Dad"

attendance rates,some people might not have a problem with this but is it Ford as a whole or individual? Does it count against you if you are on medical?Does it count against you for FMLA? What about if you get hurt in the plant and have to miss?Just give me a raise please.

It is my belief that the attendance incentive would help everyone.The, goodworkers,stockholders,communities,etc.....Maybe, even the slackers? I'm sure it may even assist in the safety aspect as well! Bottom line is we are all here to make money and take care of our families and want just do. Fair days pay for a fair days work. Bogus medicals,awols, restrictions,Fmla, hurt all of us.

How do you decide what is bogus on medicals,fmla and restrictions?To get any of these you have to be going to a doc?

Just because you go to a doctor doesn't make it legit. I know several that have bogus medicals and FMLA for themselves, and there isn't a damn thing wrong with them.

Certain things such as IBS or back issues...a doctor cannot test for specifically(though it can be ruled out with more extensive testing that most GP's won't really get into); they just listen to what the symptoms are that you are conferring to them. I know IBS is all the craze now: 3 people in my immediate surrounding "have it". One of them I know is not lying because this person was shitting like he had a Castor Oil IV drip attached to him. Whether any of them are lying or not, who knows, but it's an easy out for FMLA. So if you are tired of seeing smokers take extra breaks or you hate the heat...go to the doctor and tell them you can't stop shitting water out of your asshole and that there seems to be mucousy content to the stool. VOILA! FMLA! (Fuck My Luck, Assholes!) Or just say you have a booboo in your lower back area.

lets not debate 'how do you know crap', we all (most) of us work very hard and have seen with our own eyes when one of these slugs gets placed on a job they dont like the light goes on and off to medical they go. 1 hour later they are pushing a broom or doubled up. (smiling).. The game needs to end!! WE ALL HAVE SEEN IT....

I remember when I messed up my shoulder AT WORK and got placed on restrictions for a long time, I was treated like shit from the superintendant all the way down to the team leader. But another guy on our team FAKED an injury and got his ass kissed. Its the damn fakers and gamers that make it bad on the people that really do have illness or injury.

I've been there right with you Joe and know what you're taking about. But we all know that some people are really injured and some are not. We can not let this divide us especially at contract time. We have enough division going on now, with who is getting a smoke break, which plant is better, or agreeing on how much the Union has sold all of us out. So I say lets put this type of thing aside for now and work together to get back what we gave up and than some.

Oooooh, one other thing. At least it seems that we all agree, King does seem like a company man more than an Union man.
