We've known each other for so long, have you ever seen me joking with you?" Chen Geng raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.

"Why not?" Bill Ford remembered Chen Gengkeng's past clearly, and when he heard it, he immediately said: "The year before last, ......"

"Okay, okay," Seeing that Bill Ford began to settle old accounts with himself, Chen Geng hurriedly interrupted him: "Don't you know that the union is preparing to find trouble with me?"

“......”

Bill Ford didn't speak, the North American Auto Workers Association was ready to take the opportunity of the AMC Auto Workers Association's re-election of the president to insert his hand into the AMC Group, of course he knew, in fact, Bill Ford has always been very envious of Chen Geng's ability to stop the vampire-like North American Auto Workers Association outside the AMC car all these years- Because of this, AMC Motors has hundreds of millions of dollars less in fixed costs than Ford Motors every year, and this reduction in fixed expenses of hundreds of millions of dollars is the competitiveness of AMC Motors.

"Do you really have a way?" asked Bill Ford after a while.

Chen Geng nodded and said seriously: "Bill, you should understand that the trade union is our common enemy, and on this point, our position is the same, and when I help you, I am actually helping myself." ”

"Alright," Bill Fort nodded, "what are you going to do?"

Yes, the position of the two sides on the trade union is the same, and Bill Ford agrees with Chen Geng's remarks.

Chen Geng said with a smile: "It's very simple, you don't have to do anything, when I make a big noise next, you just need to express your pessimism about the American auto market." ”

"It's as simple as that?" said Bill Ford, with some disbelief.

"It's as simple as that. Chen Geng nodded affirmatively.

"If only that......"

Bill Ford laughed, "Then I'll wait." ”

....................................

A few days later, just as the workers of AMC were jumping up and down to take the opportunity of this union chairman election to elect a union president who could benefit them, a small rumor began to quietly circulate among the workers: the group was going to lay off employees!

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, the workers of AMC were immediately confused: the group is going to lay off employees?

For workers, the worst situation is naturally layoff, layoff, means that they lose their source of income, although a large enterprise like AMC must be in accordance with the provisions of national policy, for the laid off employees to give adequate compensation, and even provide employment training, but if can, why should I be laid off?

Moreover, in all manufacturing industries, the hourly wage of the automobile industry is high, the welfare is good, and most of the production workshops are constant temperature workshops, even if the working environment is relatively bad such as the engine casting workshop, there will be special job subsidies...... With such a good welfare package and income, who wants to be made redundant?

After a period of panic, the first reaction of the workers was to ask the team leader if the company really planned to lay off employees, but how could the team leader know this? But it doesn't matter, the team leaders who are also worried about being laid off immediately ask their superiors such as workshop directors and supervisors about the situation.

The news heard from the workshop directors and supervisors made the team leaders a little confused, some resolutely said that they had not heard the news, but there were also ambiguous attitudes, saying that they seemed to have heard a little rumor, but what was going on, I was not sure, I was inquiring about the situation with the leaders at the top......

But the vague news is only becoming more and more uneasy for the workers: Will this be a layoff or not?

In between breaks, the workers quietly discussed and exchanged information......

"There must be layoffs, and the reason why the company hasn't announced it so far is that they want to lay off our workers in the shortest possible time. ”

"But...... No, last year, our group's sales increased by 6.46%, according to the company's plan announced at the beginning of the year, this year's total sales are expected to increase by 4.5% to 5.5%, sales increase, how can the company lay off employees?"

"Maybe this year's sales are not good?"

"Who said that sales are not good? We are workers, whether the company's production capacity has changed, others don't know, don't we know? Compared with last year, our company's production capacity seems to have increased a little. ”

"That's right, John is right, we've increased our production capacity this year. ”

"In that case, the rumors of layoffs must be fake?"

"Who dares to guarantee this ......"

The workers talked a lot, but the more they discussed, the more confused they became: the company's body and sales were good, and it was said that there should be no layoffs, but now there is too much evidence that the company does seem to have an opportunity to lay off employees, what is going on?

In this case, finally some workers couldn't hold back......

"Ask the unions!" Someone put forward a suggestion: "Let the unions ask what is going on, whether they want to lay off employees, and the unions have the right to know." ”

"You're afraid you're a fool, aren't you?" As soon as this proposal was proposed, he was ridiculed by his colleagues: "Who doesn't know that our group's labor union is a bunch of unplanted soft eggs? Our hourly wages and benefits are lower than those of Ford, Chrysler, and General Motors, and it's not because our union is too stupid?"

When it comes to hourly wages and benefits, the workers are all angry, thinking that their unions are too stupid and incompetent, but the workers who put forward this proposal still argue with reason:" Although our union really can't compare with the North American Auto Workers Association, but they can't, at least ask the company if there is a layoff plan, this should always be able to do, this is also the foundation of their existence, the law stipulates that if the company has a large-scale layoff plan, the union has the right to know, and to tell us the news as soon as possible. ”

Hey......

A group of workers thought about it and felt that it was the same, although our union is a little bit of a nest compared with the North American Auto Workers Association that has unified General Motors, Ford Motors and Chrysler Motors, we are also ready to change our doors and devote ourselves to the North American Auto Workers Association, so that the North American Automobile Workers Association can settle in the AMC Group, but for the time being, the AMC Auto Workers Association is still a trade union organization that has joined itself, at this time, shouldn't the union stand up to solve problems for the workers?

After figuring this out, the workers immediately responded: "That's right, let that idiot talk to the company and figure out what's going on." ”
