I work in auto manufacturing in the US. Not directly making cars but making parts that go into cars.
The amount of work we’ve been doing is insane - overtime pretty much every day for the past two months to keep up with orders.
But that makes no sense. All these cars we’re helping to produce, who the hell is buying them? Nobody has money for a new car. Most people in my city seem to be driving cars that are at least a few years old rather than brand new.
I do the math in my head and it doesn’t make sense. Who is buying all these cars? Are they even selling? It seems like a scam of some kind.
I get a feeling this is some bs to bolster the year numbers for either the shareholders or the president to be honest. Everything else ist failing. Or do these parts go intoilitary vehicles as well? We are moving towards ww3 so maybe its dual use stuff?
No this is all civilian/personal vehicle stuff. They’re common cars too; not luxury cars.
Very interesting. I can only assume that theyre filling up the halls to push some numbers and lessen the recession figures.
Edit: oh and to split the working class so industry workers dont align with the others.
