Man that sucks, seems like everyone is laying off right now.

That's dumb
Not really they had buy-outs. But it's prolly coming. They have a company that works in mecedes called Talent Tree. It's kinda like a temp service (they hire these people, produce a lot of cars, number look good). They are all gone in december.

Plus mercedes is only working 32 hour work weeks.
Hell they layed off 200 people at my work but they still get 80% of there pay. So it was like a 2 month vacation.
If things don't pick up after the 1st of the year, they will probably lay off a lot more with out pay.

I am involved in a an expansion at MBZ to the tune of $15 mil.right now. That has given birth to the next expansion, a cool $35 mil. to adjoin the first addition. Definitely can't hide the DoicheMarkz. (little german smiley)

If its free, its P
That sucks... we have "thinned" out a little over the past few months people have gone elsewere and they have not rehired. Im certain if things dont pick up we will be cutting some non-essential personel here and there trimming back a little but they are trying very hard to avoid any sort of lay off.
I actually got the "behind doors" discussion on this same matter this AM with my boss....

My step dad works there and they have had cut backs and are doing buyouts like stated above. I work for Toyota Motor Mfg. that builds the V8 for Tundra and V6 for Tacoma's . As we have not laid off any team members they have let go some variable work force . As all major auto plants struggle with the economy as well as us, the whole gas factor has been a big blow to the V8 sales. I think things will get better but it will take time.

We are on the body shop now with Doster and that's 55,200 sq ft. The new addition will be around 300,000 sq ft next to it. The good thing about Tuscaloosa is they export 65% of the vehicles they produce. Let them Germies suck up the bills, and the FTZ knows no limits on production as long as them trains keep em rolling.
