Hey dummy. You republicans were against them striking. You wanted it all to fail.
Don’t act like you care about the company.

Don’t act like you care about the company.
These guys aren’t Deere employees. They are UAW guys and yes, there is a difference.
They fired about 20 people due to that. Anyone who even went to watch the act take place was canned.
Great. My point still stands. Phuck the company you (or your union) work for. Look out for yourself.
Ah, love going to Harvester, TCAO, The Foundry, Horicon, and JD DSM.
The beautiful green machines moving along in the back drop of EE’s sleeping on and under picnic tables, trying to have conversations with assemblers reeking of booze, and not even being acknowledged when you say hello.
Good times.

But that’s most union facilities I’ve been in over several industries.
In fact, that’s pretty much the entire hourly manufacturing industry, union or not, and even salary.
All the covid BS really was the nail in the head. Nothings been done since.
Deere is becoming more if a tech company. Soon farming will be a part time job once automated tractors and combines that are battery powered hit the scene.Every company, everyday, is facing headwinds. Companies pay executives lots of money to make decisions like layoffs so those headwinds do not take them under.
John Deere currently has more different jobs listed than number of people laid off.
Roadmap for 2030.
Yep. A girl with a OnlyFans account meet a few workers out back at one of the locations on 3rd shift and ****ed a few workers. A good sized group watched while she recorded it for her OnlyFan. Problem is they were all in turn recorded by security since cameras were everywhere.
This strike should make most on this board happy.
No more climate killing gas guzzling combines that ruin the climate and water ways.
Why is everyone mad?
Most of their Lawn And Turf stuff is heading to zero emissions. They have the PGA Tour contract for maintaining courses and all that equipment it battery powered.
The recently bought Krisel Electric in Europe which is the largest lithium battery producer there. They are going all in.
Harvester shuts down every year in October. Covid was the outlier. Now…..
It’s merger and acquisitions where Deere is spending their profits. Just in the last few years they took over two massive companies in their areas. Wertgen (construction equipment maker, Hitachi (mining equipment maker).
They’ve also added a bunch of others. Deere now has a bigger market share in construction than CAT does. They are also the leader in forestry as well.
They are much more than just a farming company now.

They have some crazy stuff they are testing out near Milan. Self driving Gators. Stuff like that.
C&F has been growing for years. Doesn’t mean you can shift head count from Ag to Dubuque or Davenport or etc.
I will go so far as to say there is a 0% chance these union guys would agree to painting or sweeping.
More educated? Your posting shows something very different. Not that my profession is of any consequence; but lets see, gym teacher or a senior engineer in the aerospace industry, you decide.
BTW, respect is earned and never awarded. Frankly, given the state of our educations worlds rankings I would say you fvcking suck at your job. Therefore you don't deserve any respect. You would be doing the students a favor by quitting and taking up garbage collection.
Sure you are.
I'm far more intelligent than you. You fell for a conman. I didn't. You're a dupe.
Your second paragraph is just one more Republican dummy chiming in about things they know nothing of. Typical.
That's kind of harsh, isn't it?
And this isn't directed at you, but education has little to do with reasoning ability or common sense. I have a brother with a PhD in Chemical Engineering, and he has virtually no common sense, or the ability to be objective about anything.
And that measue is the only metric that really counts for a publicly traded company. We may wish it was not so, but it is.
You said this much better than I did. Choosing to do something for a career that people love to do doesn't make them unintelligent. It's the opposite of that. I get to laugh every single day at work. Usually multiple times. Not everybody gets to do that. I had an internship with a professional basketball team, sat in a cubicle, and knew after a week I would never want a job like that one.

In my experience, the only type of people who seriously (that is, not in jest or poking fun) criticize what other people do for a living are deeply insecure about themselves. Probably the fact in this case as well.
But not if they’re a SENIOR engineer!!
I'm jumping in with both feet on buying stock in the foreign corporation that will be manufacturing all the EV's in the near future. Then former Deere employees and the former Big 3 employees can suck eggs as they hold their signs claiming "will work for food money".

Well if we get a second Biden administration, I guess he'll just have to get used to reporting to the Señor Engineer - since there's an "invasion" and all. 😂
Which is why I will never get the allure of working for a corporation. No matter what jargon they use. No matter what hoops they jump to make best places to work lists, they do not give two shits about their employees

I worked for Deere for almost 3 years. It's a good work environment, good pay, good benefits, lots of smart people.
That said, you are most definitely a "cog" in the machine and you can't expect any true loyalty from the machine.
I don’t expect loyalty nor do I give it. If I get a better opportunity I’m gone.

That is the right attitude!
I learned a lot of valuable stuff in my short time there that I have applied to subsequent jobs.
My dad worked for Deere for like 27 years! Times are different now.
