DTP is doing the same thing. I'm guessing they are hoping this is just a short term thing so they can have 3 crews going again right after. If not I see C-crew gone......just my opinion

Not trying to be a wet blanket or anything. But the Dow Jones index on the New York stock Exchange has dropped over 9 TRILLION dollars these past few weeks ! For what ever reason u want to credit or blame that on, it’s up to you. But losing that much money in ANY economy is earth shattering. It’s never happened before. And ALL the Financial folks know that. Your not going to just snap right back from that one. It took 3 1/2 years to build that wealth in a pretty robust economy With a recession that’s projected very soon and is almost here. Hang on kids. Housing / Automobile / Travel Etc. and most big ticket items will surely suffer A LOT. Save ur coins. It’s going to take a lot of time and good decisions to get out of this one. Stay safe.

This don’t sound good.... Will be reminiscent of ‘08 One week in and they already have stop paying a stock dividend. Unemployment will be 20% in the coming months. Would look for multiple down weeks, probably eventually lose a shift, they were looking at this anyway due to ongoing attendance issues, easy to pull the plug on it. Can’t imagine auto sales will be a high on people’s list, especially $80k pickup trucks. Only thing we have going for us is oil is super cheap. Imagine this will be a multi year event before anything is near normal again. Stay safe and save your cash. |

Lay-off should be by seniority.Senior folks would rather let the young struggling person continue to work .I would anyways.

What will it take to satisfy you? 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months? What will make you be happy and satisfied?

What will it take to satisfy you? 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months? What will make you be happy and satisfied? Well since you asked. I want temperature checks going into the building. Nothing less. The bullshit cleaning is just useless. Close the building for 36 hours and according to the CDC it’s dead. WE ARE THE CARRIER, when will these dumb fucks realize that. Clean it from top to bottom if you want but if Joe Blow walks in Monday with the virus we are fucked. Really not that hard to understand. Temperature checks on the way in, they have a fever they don’t get in. That’s all I’m asking for. That’s how South Korea handled it, until we do nothing changes. Be safe people |

I never said a negative thing or called you any names. Why go so negative? My guess is your a very unhappy person who complains and cry’s about everything. |

Governor Beshear can kiss Ford’s ass. As soon as they have parts we will fire back up. If the state says anything they will tell them fine we will just move all these jobs somewhere else. Bye Bye tax money. That will be the end of that. 10.7 and every other weekend by end of April !

Unemployment rate about to hit depression era levels, who is going to buy these trucks. The sooner you all realize the economy of last week is gone the better off you will be. Anyone that doesn’t have the seniority for two shifts should get their financial house in order, quickly. Stay safe people |

This virus will burn itself out in a couple more weeks like it has in China. Six months from now you will never know it happened. Except my brokerage account will have 300% more blue chip stocks. |

Burn itself out?
Fake news?
Jesus people, LEARN SOMETHING.
We're a week or two behind Italy.
There WILL be millions of cases in the US over the coming months.
There WILL be tens of thousands of deaths if we're lucky,hundreds of thousands are more likely.
The hospitals in this country will be overwhelmed. It's already happening in NY and Seattle.
We were warned in Jan. The government did nothing, because its run by people elected to neuter it.
We asked for this.
We about to get it, in spades.
