My CEO went on vacation with 54 million dollars and all we got were these Derby Pins. Sounds pretty fair to me.

I'm tired of management getting bonuses and raises and our CEO getting a FAT payday and even new hires getting a raise while we get NOTHING. They think trinkets like this will appease us? Give me a break. I voted NO on the contract and NO on the local. Wake up!! I want a damn raise. Prices on everything have been going UP while our wages have stayed the same for almost 8 YEARS!!!!

I don't want a jacket.
I don't want a derby pin.
I don't want a memo telling us how good our quality is.
I don't want to know how we've been getting better and better numbers....
I don't want any of that shit.
And to assume that I might, is fucking insulting.

List your Derby pin on ebay. Thats one way to suppliment your paycheck. I'm sure Mullalay won't be offended as he's still counting that 90 million (including stock options) he received from Ford last year.

Us LAP people didn't get a Derby pin, just a shitload of transfers from everywhere with more seniority than us, and a new plant manager that is a prick !

I heard that some transfers have come from Chrysler plants, G.M. plants and other non Ford payroll plants. We have all kinds of makes in the parking lot now. Nissan's, Chevy's, Dodges', Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Pontiac's, Toyota and Honda . It's just a complete insult to us L A P based people that our local allowed this to happen.

So people transfered to LAP with more seniority?
Well, I seem to recall the same thing happening when the people from LAP transferred to KTP......
And I can't believe that people are "transferring" in from other COMPANIES. Maybe new hires are driving those things, and you should have a different lot for them.

I'm sorry but the company name is not LAP, it's FORD! So get over the fact that people came to LAP to work.

The fact is if these transfers don't start parking at the appropate spots with there NON Ford cars, they will be coming out of work and walking home... Ford is not kidding about towing you.... I have seen repeated warnings about this...

I am thankful I have a job but by the same token I am tired of giving while management keeps getting more and more. 20,000 salaried get bonuses AND raises but we get a jacket and a derby pin. And FYI I voted NO on this contract.

Lap didn't get pins because they came from a union member at ktp. Has nothing to do with company, or raises. Hope that thoughtful person doesn't see this board.

Did this thoughtful person pay for the pins 100% out of their pocket? If so, I apologize for being a smartass. If not, and being as it has the blue oval and UAW logo, I'm doubting it was, so save your indignation.

Yes they did, according to what we were told when they handed them out. I know u probably grasp the concept. I harbor no indignation, whatever that means.

When my supervisor gave me mine she said "Ford's way of saying thank you." So it makes you think Ford paid for them. If I am wrong then I too apologize.

I have seen repeated warnings about this... They can do like the lazyasses and get a handicapped plackard. Then they can park at any gate in a handicapped spot. The slackers win again ........ (Disclaimer-This is not to say that all plackard owners are slackers) ;D
