Re: Intro from an old Assembly Plant guy
WOW, Lake City Ammo plant, I live by that....It is hard to immagine them letting you smoke there!! LOL
By the way, Do you know Leroy Smith, he worked at GM......
Just kidding, I got that alot when I was at Ford. I took an Early Retirement From FoMoCo Claycomo Truck Plant about 3 years ago, I spent 13 yrs. there. I was part of the Launch and Design team when we launched the Hybrid Escape in '03, Lots of great stories, if people knew how we built them, the big three would be brok..........never mind.
Once I was one of the people assigned to "visually monitor" one of Ford Jr's personal car's through the plant (yes I was the babysitter) the stupid thing had 6 coats of paint on it, wich is really bad, if it had one thing wrong with the paint, they put it back through. probably ended up with 35 mil of paint on it !! The funny thing is he probably drove it twice before he sent it back.
I am glad you found the site, and good to see you made it out.. Enjoy.
