      Hey if the things that everyone is saying is not bad enough check this out… I had applied for a job via the I.S.O. and when it was time for the manager to interview me this is what happen and this is word for word…” Hello (my name) you have very good qualifications for this job, you have everything I am looking for, can you tell me what department you are working in now?” Yes I work in Spectra for (supervisor’s name) “You work in the factory?” “Yes, the back end.” This is the best part….” I do not want any factory people in my office.” This is what caused me to write Mr. Galvin.
      Can you believe that? I guess I wasn’t as stupid as he thought considering the potion I have now. Management!!!!
      All of you talented people don’t take their crap; if you got it use it! You will find someone who will appreciate you and what you have to offer.

      I Don't know about you guys but I did write to Mr. Galvin... Boy they called me so fast is wasn't funny. I said everything I had to say, and it felt GOOD too,I did't care either I was just a peon in the factory. Nothing was ever done who ever is running the show must have good looking paperwork! It always looks better on paper, just like when the new products came down to the line, it always looked good on paper and when the peons in the factory tried to show them it wasn't working it didn't matter cause the paperwork looked good. And whoever said they dont' help the smart and talented employees get ahead. You couldn't be more right, they always told me on my reviews how good I was..blah, blah, blah. Well my friends when my days at Motorola ended 3 or 4 years ago after 24 years of stuggling to get a better postion.. I am now in managment! On an upscale not It use to be a pleasure to work there, maybe it was because I didn't know better 24 years ago. Chins up my friends your turn is coming. Jul 10 06:16 PM

      While you all cry the blues, some of you who should be working instead of writing here. That includes the moron who wrote this comment “Ellery Davies"
      You'd have to hunt pretty deep and wild to figure out who I am, but it ain't top secret. My real name is known to some. No body gives a crap who you are, who wants to figure it out anyway, you’re a shareholder, we all were at one point, get over it!!!
      I spent 24 years working for Motorola, 2 years before retirement and got canned instead of the lazy asses I worked with, why because I made more money than them because my reviews were better than theirs were, because I cared and look what it got me!
      Who ever is running the show now; you are all screwed, the places they need to cut is all the fat head managers, high up managers, the ones you never see, the ones you have no idea how the hell they got the job in the first place and have no idea what the hell they do. They spent all that money to send production to Mexico and it takes them 6 weeks to do what the small people did in 3 days. I guess you get what you pay for!
      Not to worry, there is life after Motorola. But it is too late for the poor eng that shot himself a few years ago because his boss gave him a bad review for working hard, but it seems personnel says you must rate a certain percentage. That should be one manager that is canned. Good Luck to those that are left, however I sorry there is nothing left for you. It was a nice place to work a long time ago.
