Stocks up. Orders up. This sl--e page is silent

Zero posts before the ax fell. Odd for this board to be so, behind the news. Must have laid off anyone who posted here. Congrats, HR. Job well done. Page out of old homewrecker’s handbook.

Have to wait 2 more years and see what kind of crack pot deal this onion can muster up for the membership

So much confusion. Did I get a raise? We voted on the national extension. Do we get 6 and 6? That’s what we voted for. Do we vote again on this extension or is it over? Am I voted on someone else’s raise? Why haven’t the company had an all hands... — read more
