In 2019, picketers able to prevent scabs from entering for a while, until company called in police. “We barely can make it but they got generational wealth. They got enough money for their kids’ kids’ kids to have money, but I’m struggling to just get my kid to college.” After 2019 strike, workers spent months fixing quality control issues. “We were fixing parts over six months because they f***ed up everything they touched.”
For safety reasons the scabs likely shouldn’t be allowed to touch automotive components.
The safety and quality of both the work and the product are severely diminished when completed by scabs during a strike.
And it’s also a very basic principle of work, middle school level even, that certain jobs require training before putting people to work.
Safety and quality? Have you never driven an American car?
