Caterpillar is threatening to close a plant in London, Ontario, and move the work to Muncie where they will pay slave wages. This will save the company big bucks as they will slash their wages related expenses by about 50 percent. How folk can be asked to live on $16 an hour is hard for me to fathom. If a person puts in an honest day's work, they should get paid an honest day's pay. Otherwise the company is being dishonest in their dealings with their employees.Rockinonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16466451909515114927noreply@blogger.com
