Just a reminder, it took a republican house and senate to pass NAFTA.
both partys are to blame, though NAFTA was a conservative think tank concept.

My father has worked there since 79'. This is a sad situation for all the employees. I don't know what he is gonna do. I know he isn't gonna like going to a job that pays minimum wage. That's a big SLAP in the face compared to what he was making. He has had it rough before. I'm sure he will manage. He has always been a hard working man. I send sympathy to all the employees.

I am sure if your father worked there in '79 he will not have much of a problem with minimum wage. Back when I started in 70s we were getting roughly 2-4 dollars an hour, and unless he was a manager for the last 15 years he has been making minimum wage.
Those of us who have worked there for a longtime remember how bad the pay used to be.

Where is butt kisser marvin going now? He is also uneducated. He backstabbed a lot of good people and his wife.

I think he would have a hard time w/ it. Making what he does now and going to a minimum wage job? Yes, he would. That's a big difference. Like I said he will make it though. He always has.
