Did everyone hear that Kenny lost his job. I talked to him today,they hired two other people to do his job for less money. I guess thats the way the worlds getting, sucks that theres no loyalty to the employee thats made them thousands but when times get slow they'll cut your *** in a heart beat.

Damn, that blows! Kenny's a hell of a salesman, so I'm sure he will find work elsewhere quickly, but it really sucks all the same for him.

I almost turned down tonight's OT so I could swing by Hall's @ 11:30. I just hate turning down OT when it's "here today, gone tomorrow". We just don't know how long we'll be making trucks. They are telling us we'll have a steady supply of OT for the next 4-6 weeks because of July shutdown and also because we'll need to cover the people that took the attrition program (they leave July 1). It'll be a while until they can get transfers from other plants in to take their places.
You sir are a *****!!!!!!!!!!

Appreciate the suggestion. Luckily i am somewhat of a hillbilly, and have 4 vehicles for 2 drivers. I've got the equinox in the shop right now. i am gonna unplug the sensors and check the ac voltage with my dvom. Maybe i will get lucky. I would think that it would set a code if i had a bad sensor. But maybe i've got some crud on a tone ring or its just out of adjustment and not picking up voltage at slow speeds.

That sucks, he should be able to pick something up, I'd honestly stay away from automotive right now.
