Alex Trotman is smiling!

As the current chairman of Ford Motor, Alex Trotman has been under a lot of pressure during this time, and every time he faces reporters, he always has a feeling of going to the execution ground, but today is different......

"Yes, our cafeteria is also $0.99 per person per meal, and we guarantee meat, eggs, vegetables, staples and soups to keep our workers fed......

"Of course, of course, we allow the workers who worked last weekend to bring their children, and of course the children eat for free......"

"Yes, we will hire dedicated personnel to help watch over the children and take care of their safety...... AMC Motors has set a good example for us peers, and we certainly have to learn from Mr. Fernandez...... Mr. Bill Ford has always praised Mr. Fernandez Chen......"

Finally, when asked by a reporter how he could ensure that the workers were fed and well fed for $0.99, Alex Trotman's face became serious......

"That's exactly what I'm saying," said Alex Trotman, "as we all know, the lunch buffet program of AMC cars is partly funded by the workers themselves, partly subsidized by the union, and partly subsidized by the manufacturer, so as to ensure that the workers can be fed and ......well-fed."

Speaking of this, Alex Trotman's expression became serious: "Before this, I actually communicated with the North American Auto Workers Association, hoping that they would take out part of the membership fees paid by the workers to subsidize the workers' lunches, but they refused. ”

"What?!"

"They refused?"

"Those guys...... How dare they refuse......"

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

The reporters at the scene were immediately a little confused.

The reporter did not know how much the AMC Automobile Workers Association would subsidize the AMC workers every day, and every time this question was asked, the management of the AMC Automobile Workers Association either prevaricated with "I am not in charge of this part, I am not very clear", or "only Mr. April knows about this matter", and everyone was itching.

But in any case, everyone knows that the AMC Auto Workers Association has taken out a part of the money to subsidize the workers' independent lunch on the premise of charging only 1.5% of the workers' monthly salary, but the North American Auto Workers Association, which "rules" the workers of Ford Motors, is unwilling to take out a little money to subsidize the workers' lunch on the premise of charging 5% of the workers' monthly salary as a membership fee?!

The reporters were immediately unhappy, and for a while the crowd was excited.

In fact, they thought even further: Maybe sometime in the future, we will be able to eat this almost free lunch, and now make a big deal about it, and make the North American Auto Workers Association stink, maybe their chance will come.

"Yes, they refused," said Alex Trotman with a sad face, "and not only that, but they also rejected Mr. Bill Ford's request for a reduction in their dues......"

Lower dues?

The reporters' eyes widened suddenly.

"Yes, reduce the membership fee," Alex Trotman nodded affirmatively in the face of reporters' questions: "As we all know, the membership fee standard of the North American Automobile Workers Association is 5% of the monthly salary of workers, and the membership fee standard of the AMC Automobile Workers Association is 1.5% of the monthly salary of workers. In this case, we can't help but ask: since 1.5% of the monthly salary is enough to support the operation of the AMC Auto Workers' Association, why does the North American Auto Workers Association insist on such a high membership fee of 5 percent?"

Hey?!

Alex Trotman didn't say it, everyone really didn't realize this problem, and now when they heard Alex Trotman say this, the reporters immediately reacted: Yes, they are all workers on the automobile production line, why do AMC workers only need to pay 1.5% of their monthly salary as membership dues, while workers in Ford, Chrysler and General Motors have to pay 5% of their monthly wages as membership dues? Why does the North American Auto Workers Association charge 3.5% more?

That's big news!

The reporters were excited!

Looking at the reporters waving below, Alex Trotman secretly sighed in his heart: "It's really easy to use!" He continued: "In his previous communication with the North American Auto Workers Association, Mr. Bill Ford hoped that the union would subsidize $1 per worker per day as a membership fee, and at the same time, reduce the standard of membership fee from the current 5% of the monthly salary to 4% of the monthly salary, and set 2% of the monthly salary as a future goal. The calculation of the accountant hired by Mr. Ford is equivalent to a salary increase of $42 per month for the worker, but unfortunately ......"

Shrugging his shoulders, Alex Trothman said with a depressed face: "The union side does not agree. ”

Of course, the union side will not agree, this is tantamount to cutting meat on them.

Alex Trotman understands this, and the reporters present also understand it, but it is clear that when it comes to their own vital interests, this time, the reporters did not hesitate to stand on the side of the management......

"Mr. Trotman, we will definitely report on this when we go back!" immediately shouted a reporter who couldn't help but shout.

"Thank you, thank you very much," Alex Trotman said with a grateful look on his face as he bowed slightly to the "outspoken" reporter, "on behalf of the more than 80,000 workers at Ford Motor Corporation in North America." ”

Alex S. What Trotman didn't say was that Ford, which had been bullied by the North American Auto Workers Association in the past, had posted this statement on every workshop in order to crack down on the arrogance of the North American Auto Workers Association！

In the group of reporters, someone suddenly shouted: "Mr. Trotman, you are very sorry for Michelle Brown. What do you think of Mr. W. Eppel's previous statement that the AMC Auto Workers Association will be regulated?"

"What do I think about this?" Alex Trotman was stunned for a moment, then laughed, that's a good question. He spread his hands and shrugged, "Do you need to ask this question? Mr. President needs to be supervised, the military needs to be supervised, the Secretary of State needs to be supervised, the governor and even the mayor below need to be supervised, capitalists and philanthropists like Mr. Bill Ford, professional managers like me Alex Trotman, journalist friends......

All of us all need to be regulated, so I don't understand why unions don't think they need to be regulated, and why should they not be regulated?!"

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The flash lights lit up.

The reporters were all very excited: today's press conference is really full of dry goods.

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

Compared with the excited and trembling reporters, the front-line production workers of Ford Motor are not so happy, looking at the statements posted in each workshop, they look at each other......

The statement is very simple, and it can be summed up in four points: first, Ford will also learn from AMC cars and hold buffet lunches for workers; second, Ford's buffet lunches are also $0.99 per person, and children under the age of 12 can also be brought on weekends, and the company will provide free lunches and help take care of the children; third, the company has communicated with the labor union, hoping that the union will come up with some funds to subsidize the workers' buffet lunch with the company, but the union refuses; fourth, the company communicates with the labor union, hoping that the union will pay the standard from the current monthly salary of 5% was reduced to 4% and 2% in the long term as a disguised increase in workers' incomes, but the unions also refused.

Looking at this statement, finally, a worker muttered, "They...... How can this be?"

This "they" can only be trade unions.

This sentence seemed to open the conversation, and immediately someone said angrily: "Yes, how can they do this......? Isn't that supposed to help us?"

"You're thinking too much," someone on the side immediately retorted, "those guys from the union...... You even believe that those guys who refuse to connect to the custody are on our side? They're a bunch of vampires! a bunch of damn vampires!"

In the face of the "major rights and wrongs" that have a bearing on one's own vital interests, any trade union is all nonsense.

"If you want to talk about unions, you have to be the union on the AMC side," someone whispered, "I heard that the chairman of the AMC's union, Michelle M. Mr. W. April made a public statement, saying that the AMC endorses and supports the regulation of union management......"

"Really?"

"Really?"

The workers immediately asked.
