Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Things are so bleak, even the sunshine blowing Dougie lover had disappeared from this site!

They used to post in every negative thread. It's been several days without their nonsense. Could it be that with quality still in the toilet, EV sales down significantly, pending lawsuits from former customers and employees, layoffs of some the best and brightest while protecting friends and family, executives guilty of domestic violence, and complete inept leadership at every level of the company, that even they have nothing positive to say?

The Titanic has hit the icebergs (yes multiple). The ship is going down. Get into the limited lifeboats available now!

Sometimes I accept that Ford employees get the Ford leadership they deserve.

By going along with the status quo nothing changes and the non-contributing class expands. By staying you agree to the leadership, yes there are all sorts of rationalizations for the staying.

The silent majority of the 1990s when the non-contributing class was 15% is now the silent minority of the 2020s as the non-contributing class has bulked up to 65%.

@3znb+1nBmrp6J. The real issues? The real issues are political.

I'm so glad that all political rants (eventually) get deleted from here. I sometimes wonder if someone is deliberately trying to stir the pot trying to provoke political back and forth, just to push down the real issues.

Get ur heads out of the sand. Ford sold less in 2022 than 2009. Meaning ford sold less cars last year than their worst year at the height of the financial crisis when they were laying off people left and right after the period of off loading component assembly plants. My crystal ball says ford is more in trouble than they are showing and that they have their poker face on. Getting out of the car business, lowered sales on suvs and trucks, and the dreams of profits from EV (someone show me a business case where this works for ford) is a recipe for disaster.transaction prices are higher because of fake supply constrained and their choice to only produce higher trim models. When the overall supply of other mfgs becomes normal ford will be a very small player in the mkt place. We will see how the family again will avoid bankruptcy.

Or realizing the Ford protection bubble does not extend to the “real” world.
Last year a retired LL6 who was perpetually drunk and abusive at Ford was arrested for slapping girls bottoms at an outdoor concert. The guy was shocked and didn’t understand what the big deal was, after all he had been doing this his entire life. It was interesting to hear him spin it, he was the victim of discrimination against older men. SMH
