Ludington/Manistee MI area | You have a case of backyardist. Where I work shutdowns are busier than actual run time we bring in contractors to do extra work sometimes. Demand a little low? Cut rate. Sales slow? Get creative and shuffle folks around a bit. We are union but our local is smart enough to be flexible to keep folks working. I’ve even been asked by management to find work for the nested contractors to keep them busy from time to time. |
Layoffs are a fact of life
