Are all LAP people being offered transfers to CAP or just the people who are on layoff?

The reason it is offered to all LAP people is because they are following their product.

Well here we are. March 1st and dont know a thing. There are so many questions and no one with answers. I am on ILO and have no idea where I may end up in 3 months. Will I be A) in Chicago B) at KTP C) at LAP D) at a new job with no ties to Ford??? Here are my questions. Does anyone know if a transfer to KTP is possible for the ILO's that have more seniority than employees at KTP? Last I heard there was about 70 of us that had seniority on KTP people and that we would be able to bump them, leaving them to make the choice to go to Chicago or not. At the last union meeting LAP says yes, while KTP says no. In fact, KTP's building chairmen sent a notice telling the current employees that they were safe from any transfer push. The next day the good ole boys at LAP say that is wrong. Any new knowledge on this subject? This is good info to have before the robocall? When is that, like 2 weeks? On another note, This money thing just seems like the biggest bullcrap in history. 5,000 to go up and 30,000 to come home in 16 months? I just cant come to terms with that. (the sad part is I cant trust anyone that tells me its true). OK, lets say thats true just for sh#&s and giggles. That makes this "following your product" deal a whole new ball of wax. Out of 1000 people you are gonna have some people bite with that type of cash dangling in front of them. Maybe not alot but definately enough to interrupt the flow at LAP. Lets say 60-70 out of 1000(and thats probably underestimating the #) go for it. Who will replace them? ILO's that didnt voluntarily transfer to Chicago? Is there anyway they could screw ILO's even harder and get temps? Dont laugh Im serious. With the last explorer being built in November, doesnt that seem like alot of strategic hustle & bustle with your workforce with less than 6 months to go? And plus youve now got to put those ILO's back on your books throughout the retool. They want us off the books people!!! And they are so close with benefits declining and expiring shortly. My particular situation I would prefer just to stay in Louisville (KTP or LAP) and be with my family rather than chase the money. But if I must go to Chicago, then that may be what I have to do to support my family. So it is Monday, March 1st, and Im asking our ELECTED union officials to please find out the information that we so desperately need BEFORE this Robocall occurs.

If I were you mattdaddy, I would copy and paste that post into a new post so more people can see/read it. And then, I would get on the phone and talk to Stone, Herb, and Scott Eskridge. Hell, call Chicago if you have to...others on here have done it. Get all the info you can, then make the decision yourself. Never allow anyone else tell you what YOUR best option may be...only you can figure that out.

Thanks Scott....but......people like Matt and myself can't get good information to start with. One hand says no and the other hand says yes..... Getting all the info you can is absolutely worthless when one hand says the other hand is incorrect! MattDaddy, I got a feeling I'll be seeing you in Chi town.

That is pathetic. It's a shame our union will not look out for us since they are supposed to be working for us. Hell, tell them you are gonna get a lawyer if you can't get some answers. That usually gets their attention.

Everyone on ILO knows what your talking about Matt. It's hard to make a informed decision without any information. I'm certain that I.L.O. stands for Information Left Out.
