Vacations can't be staggered so that production continues? Not being a smart ass... just can't imagine shutting down our entire site so that folks can take a mass vacation.

Those are just the scheduled 2 weeks off for the big 3 every year. Although , certain car lines do run depending on their demand at the time. So it is possible that they are running , but not for sure.

they cant get people to come work for 30 dollars an hours in the summer so they do a mass refief.

Shutdown is when major plant PM is done as well as changing over lines and other essential things that cannot be done when production is in process. I worked for a bearing manufacturer and we had shutdown 1 week in summer and 1 week in winter. It is SOP and trust me for a big manufacturer like Ford I doubt even with 3 shifts and 2 weeks they can get everything done they are planning to do during shutdown

I know all about shutdowns. We just went through a 28-day TAR for our #1 unit during which we probalby spent near $1bil in Capital money for repairs and new installations. That means a month of basically no days off and long hours... not vacation. He stated that it was for vacations. Why would you purposely schedule for a new line to be down for maintenance after only a few weeks of production?
