UAW: It Should Be Giving Up More

To all,
I must admit that I had MOST of my 401K in GM...not only was I an employee, I am also shareholder. (I believed THAT MUCH in the company that I have worked for the past 31 years) ..I have lost a HUGE amount of my 401K...(over 6 figures) I am not whining...that was my decision.
Maybe now you can see just why I don't want to lose any more...I have put my WHOLE life into this company...not only as an employee but also as an investor.
If we lose our retirement and benefits...then my whole life has been for naught....(a VERY sad position to be in)....I know MANY others who are in the same position.So your "so called bondholders" are NOT alone.
Believe me...these are the ones that you are hearing the most from.

We are just trying to survive and take care of our families...No more that the rest of you....

So PLEASE before you condemn the Autoworker...try walking in OUR shoes.

That is why I have taken so much offense to "The Union should give up more"....hell...I don't have much more to "give up"...they have my lowered myretirement...my 401 is just about gone...my experience...my medical all in the "balance"...How much more can I give up?

You really don't want to be in our shoes at this point and time

Just a thought....
