More vegetarian options. Indian. Thai. Premium ice cream shop. A good diner. Still not a single idea of your own? Not one? Why show up? And you're not going to share your crime data site? Secret agent? IRS? Or......embarrassment? Definitely running out of guesses. C'mon, we don't bite. Owen, right?

Looks like the Triad is finally turning the corner after years of struggling to develop an identity and attract good jobs.

It's good news. Manufacturing jobs tend to be far less ephemeral than their white collar counterparts, and better suit the Triad's current demographic. Regarding Toyota, perhaps a partnership with the employer to provide transportation for areas in Greensboro of higher poverty and unemployment. We'll certainly find out who wants to work and who doesn't.

Im gonna wager local temp agencies are already viying for a contract to be Toyotas go to agency for workers.. I bet it will be another company that relies heavy on temp workers and not hire actually labor workers.. it's sad. But seems to be how alot of the manufacturing places do to save on cost.. with that said , I definitely wouldn't expect any type of partnerships as u mentioned.

Respectfully and strongly disagree. Toyota is already in the preliminary stages of hiring directly. They're gonna be paying 60+k with full bennies. If they need a temp. agency, what does that tell us about the local work force. And our fundamental differences are not academic, we'll have our answers soon enough. Personally, I'm not impressed with the work ethic of today's appropriately aged demographic, especially in the South.

I'm lifetime union. Teamsters, then IAFF. I'm a labor guy, and I fully understand the worker/management dynamic. I'm not sure what's led you to your own personal assumptions.
