DGAMBLER Uniroyal Goodrich in Opelika was overrunning our schedule, scrap was down and quality was up. We were closed due to our mix of tire codes. The union and plant manager told corporate that we needed to have larger tire codes than 15-16” tires. This was right after Michelin purchased us. Corporate told the plant manager that they purchased us to supply the replacement market. Lo and behold China flooded the market with cheap 15-16” tires. The righting was on the wall after that. When they finally made the announcement it wasn’t 2 months later several came through and said they made the wrong decision. So be it. I and so many others are better off. The only negative is I needed 14 months to draw my retirement. Former Quality Leadhand from Opelika BFG. Good luck to all of you. The best thing is all of my coworkers that transferred to BFG4 will draw their retirement.
