One Toke OVER The Line? Chrysler Employees Caught Drinking And Smoking AGAIN During Work!!!

I'm sure UAW_LAX blogger will try to put his UAW spin on this. He'll try to convince everyone that his kronies are "good for the economy". And they wanted a seated at the barginning table. Barginning what...pot and drinking breaks in their new contracts? Get rid of these UAW dinosaurs.

Let's just do what SportyTubo does and blame too much immigration and minorities for this.

If my future was working on the line, doing the same repetitive tasks all day, I'd join 'em in the parking lot, lol! BTW, I have worked on a UAW assembly line for a few months.

One thing can put an end to this.....MANDATORY EMPLOYEE DRUG TESTING and RANDOM DRUG/BREATHALIZER TESTING.

But I would imagine that UAW would have none of it.

Hey now, quality is increasing. Perhaps this is their secret.

...and jokes need no rebuttal.

Fair enough, lol!

wait a minute...

wow wee see a handful of guys using drugs and we try to pin it onto ALL the workers very typical and predictable. I dont know of ANY industry that has workers that are drug free. Sorry but drugs are a national problem not just an auto industry problem.

I guess it's okay for a "handful" of UAW employees working for Chrysler to be caught AGAIN. They fired the previous "handful". This must just be a "different handful" of bad workers. You have a group of UAW autoworkers who obviously don't care about building a quality vehicle or for the safety of their fellow co-workers or respect for the company that gives them a very rewarding job. Maybe this Chrylser plant should have mandatory drug testing and fire anyone who failed to successfully pass the drug test. I'm sure a "handful" of the 17,000 unemployed people waited overnight for one of the 1800 openings available at Ford's assembly plant, would have given anything just to have one of those Chrysler positions. These folks would greatly appreciate the chance to have one of the jobs being held by these morons. This identical incident happened several months ago. What is that old say, "Fool me once, shame on you; Fool me twice; shame on me".

billfrombuckhead,
Nice try, but your red herring argument isn't going to work. Fox news didn't light the joints in those worthless UAW leeches' mouths (in the UAW parking lot no less!). Lefties like you and uaw_lax lose all credibility when you insist on defending the indefensible and trying to shift blame onto the messenger, while refusing to concede wrongdoing by your fellow big-gov't statists in the UAW. If given the choice I'm convinced you would censor opposing viewpoints (Fox News) rather than have drug-addled, taxpayer-supported uaw "workers" exposed for what they are.

If they were my employees I would fire them immediately, I would also have a drug surprise test occasionally, drug addicts never make good employees,there are some very rare exceptions.

Fire 'em.

How is it "defending" bad employees to state (among all the hype) that these are a minority of bad employees? Remember the article starts with:

"FOX 2 investigative reporter Rob Wolchek got a call from two different workers inside Chrysler's Trenton Engine Plant telling him they don't want to work with people who have been partying."

Last month it was air-traffic controllers sleeping through landings, or the surgeon who cuts off the wrong leg. I hope those Chrysler workers are fired, lose thier homes, get hooked on herion and burn in hell... But it doesn't make them a majority, or unique to a particular industry.

Don't know the details of this story yet, but I can tell you the workers in the previous story were material handlers (hilo drivers) so they didn't actually build anything. (Not that it matters... As a UAW employee, I also want to see them fired.)

I'd also argue that if it was part of FOX's agenda to smear southern autoworkers, you could find the same scene around the "transplants".

There is a lot of tension between new workers and old, and calling the FOX reporters has become a payback of sorts among these idiots who don't realize they're just pawns in a game.

Assuming you are talking about the tier structure, the last paragraph is an excellent point.

Pay tier is exactly what I meant.
