Over 144,000 workers are set to strike on September 14 if negotiations with their employers, the car manufacturers General Motors, Stellantis, and Ford, fail. The union has already employed the tactic of practice pickets at auto plants in Detroit, Michigan and Louisville, Kentucky
Unfortunately for me, this puts me on layoff until they come back. I’m in a UAW Union, but do not receive any benefits such as strike pay. I’m going to have to file for unemployment while I find a new job, until they call us back in.
I support the strike, but it seems unlikely that Ford will give in to their demands. My job is pretty stressful, but I kind of like it for the challenge it is.
