Yep, good paying jobs too. They were all union. A buddy worked at IH in Ft.Wayne. Late '78 they went on strike. I can still see him saying "we're gonna show'em who's boss around here. A couple months later he was working a beer truck for $6 an hour.Yep, when we were kids, there were factories everywhere........Sad...

Next time, give me some notice. Hello ghitch!corn and steak on grill
Just in time "inventory" didn't exist back then.The problem with the Body Company was that you had work there for 5-6 years before you worked year round. UPS would order their trucks in blocks. When you ran out of UPS trucks they would lay off 20-30% of their people. You could be off 3-5 months before going back...
