Of course as I get happy that my modules are going live I see the news story about the possible pending rail strike this week. I know it’s selfish but dang it no more delays :mad:

For a freight and delivery charge of $1595, Ford can just give everyone a plane ticket, one night hotel voucher and $100 gas card and let us drive our own damn Broncos to the dealers.

at this point, I'd pay for the plane ticket myself if they'd allow me to pick it up - it's been sitting in Michigan, 'built' since 8/8 with no signs of when it will ship.

Yeah, I've heard it is about them being penalized for taking vacation time and or not having any time off. But I didn't myself look up the reason.

if they're taking time off and not have the vacation time to cover it, then yeah - they should be penalized.

Of course, of course my status would finally update to "awaiting shipment" and then this. I would totally pay for a ticket and drive it back myself.

Don’t get me wrong, I support the workers that are being treated like crap while the suits enjoy record profits. Just my inner selfish side is mad at the timing lol.

The way things are going at least you know the light is not an oncoming train
