I have not made your case because you have no case to make. I know what I am talking about Flap. You don't. Go back to your books and union rags and work up another argument to save your lost cause. "Also, if German workers are the world's best, then why are German automakers building new plants in the United States instead of Germany? "' Why don't you use that big brain of yours flap and find the real reason why the Germans and the Japanese are building cars here in the states. I can think of two very good reasons and anyone who has a basic understanding of internationals wishing to succeed in the US market knows them. Why don't you know them flap. If you did you wouldn't make such a stupid statement. You really don't have a clue. I wonder what you really do for a living. I don't think it would fit my definition of work. "If the worker can't be trusted for any action resulting from independent thinking, sounds to me like your training manuals need overhauling. (Hint: It's a management problem, not a labor problem.) Better yet, throw away your training manuals and bring in some people who have the ability to train properly. " Yes flap, blame the trainer because the horse won't drink the water...or can't. EVEN YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS FLAP, LOL. Really try harder. Give me something worth responding to. Give me a statement that requires more than 3 seconds of thought. Baby steps flap, just shoot for 10 seconds of thought statements first. I am starting to see that you not only have weak arguments but a rather weak grasp of the reality of competition in 2000 and beyond. You really don't know much about this, but you ramble on with your nitpicky examples like an expert. You MUST be a Democrat, even if you say you are not -g- Ever been to Germany or Japan flappy? Ever even met a German union worker flappy? Try to answer a question for a change flap. I address yours, should I not expect quip pro quo? I think we all know the answer to that already. TH
