Hey Mick, where do you come up with these so-called 'facts' ?? GM workers the most productive in the world....? What a laffer that is !! You can't possibly be serious. I like Dickie's comment about the magazines, I hear at GM they can prepare meals on-line, smoke in the cars while doing 'quality' checks,(that is a fact), they get holidays and sick days coming out of their ying-yangs, I bet nobody ever got fired from a GM because they called in sick, no matter how many times it happened. The amount of resourses that GM wastes every year could feed a small nation, and you call them 'productive' ?? Yeah, okay.
