Cause I use to work briefly as a temp recruiter . Alot of companies in highpoint would put in large order for temps. They just needed bodies . Hard labor and wear a temp out for a day or two and then request another temp to replace the temp that quit. It was a revolving door and the company didn't care. They just needed a person to do the days worth of labor. Also not sure what temp agencies have to do with union??

I understand, but a company like Toyota battery is going to need more than just bodies. And I don't see people that want to move up in the world quitting a job that pays Toyota wages and benefits, unless they're lazy, stupid or some combination of the two. My logic stands for BOOM as well, provided they progress as planned.
I was just trying to say.. that I hope Toyota does hire employees and not rely on a temp work Force to get the jobs done
It doesn't matter in the long run. Factory jobs will not be filled by union workers, but by robots. Toyota will quickly realize that robots are cheaper than US Union Labor. Amazon and UPS have already realized this.

Soo then in reality.. how many "jobs" with this actually bring to the aera. But at least there will be some jobs out of it, but I don't think it's gonna be in the high number they are saying... Hopefully I'm wrong.. .. especially with robots doing majority of work ... One place I sent temps too needed temp workers while the new conveyer belt system was being put in place to label packages. Ones that convery belt system got up and running . They werent gonna to keep the temps in the mean time ,they got all these temps slapping labels on boxes and working hard hoping to get hired on in reality they weren't gonna be needed once the system got up and running.

I understand your temp experience, but it can't be applied to the situation we're discussing. Toyota has been building cars for a very long time. Very well and very efficiently. The best indications of their expected labor model in Randolph County is their other existing manufacturing facilities. Have temps replaced a permanent workforce? Have robots? It's extremely likely that thousands of jobs with good pay and benefits will be created for the local labor pool. The bad news for today's young men and women is that this work can't be done from home. Or on a smart phone. It involves showing up on time, ready to work an 8 hour day, 5 days per week, 52 weeks per year. Less weekends and holidays. If they're not lined up around the corner for these jobs, then it doesn't bode well for future manufacturing opportunities of this magnitude.
I had a thought. As the Triad continues to grow and over the years and passenger flight begins to pick up dramatically to RDU or Charlotte Douglas levels, what if PTI were converted into an industrial airport and a new international airport would be built somewhere else? This way increased passenger flights would not hinder flight schedules for the aerospace companies.

Not going to happen IMO. CLT is the second largest hub for one of the world's largest airlines along with a ton of business traveler's . PTI may have found it's niche but here's some food for thought , CLT also happens to control 3,000 acres of land it could develop,has built in rail access, it's own development recruiters & is located in the middle of one the largest manufacturing/logistics corridors in the US
