    .. a totally sad day for me

    I helped set up that engine plant (with systems and admin) back when I worked there
    Saw it be erected and start manufacturing engines...

    Agree sad - considering it won a GM award for most productive plant this year.
    The world is stuffed because it is run by accountants and psychopaths!

    Best wishes to all that worked there and fingers crossed for you all.

    I worked for manufactured that relied on the people that supplied / installed and maintained the GM plant, so it will not be just GMH how many people think is only effected,
    there are a whole LOT more !
