i dont think its fight and bicker its communication ( again) i for one was suprised and glad kmart posted that article. its informative thats for sure… i have to show it to my husb (union family/ sheet metal) he would be interested in that for sure…
but one thing they didnt go into (unless i missed it) was the tax incentives our govmt offers to honda toyota etc to bring their plants to these areas of rebuilding… ( it isnt out of the kindness of thier heart that they move there) why give tax incentives to corps that dont need it? i can think of other ppl in the usa who could use the tax breaks… couldnt you??
another topic i guess??
no layoffs for honda… how much do they get paid? how are their benefits? do they have a pension fund, what about the asian workers/ factories??? check out china and their lack of pollution controls? you know where the money is NOT being spent.
i know there is no real american made car( 100% made here) but i bet you think twice now before buying produce/food from asian countries…i tend to look at labels more now than ever.
asian imports Argh!
my first car i ever drove was a 68 impala..it was a tank but it was safe… saved my butt when i had my first accident while i was still on my permit!!
glad to hear moms ok…
i would go on about the fords but ant will get all fired up again…lol
chevy impala
plymouth duster ( dont laugh)
ford galaxie 500
ford mustang /mach 1……….all cars i used to drive bitdnothin beats a good old fashioned american made car
i think smooth transition was always in peoples minds especially new nominees, but before transition there must be communication..lets try to get some of the people together this sunday like brett suggested thats a first step.
change is good
there should be no “middle”
you were there at the last meeting. communication was attempted and didnt go well.
ask yourself why is that? now you are in the middle. being in the middle is a choice not an appointed position.
lets talk on sunday its hard to see a persons intentions when typing….
private or public ..should all be accurate information
when you tell me the board is staying on and says no elections then come on here and say elections at a later date… duh? people were formally nominated at a nominating meeting at the track. these nominations were supposed to be voted on and that never happened.
so now when you tell me the board members are not holding elections and have decided to stay on for another year i am not supposed to tell the people who we nominated that this has occured? people who accept a nomination have intentions of volunteering and if the board had any decency they would FORMALLY contact those who were nominated and tell them PERSONALLY what is going on with the elections. it shouldnt be a guessing game.
sorry i dont think that is right. i nomiated someone at the meeting so yes i have an interest in what happens, along with others who came to these meetings.
why didnt you just post here what you sent me? i cant see a reason why if its all true. maybe the board should just post on there themselves then there will be no miscommunication in the future.
🙄
the reason i questioned the post was that this is what i was told earlier the same day when i asked about a meeting for elections:
“the board has taken into consideration the persons nominated and have decided to remain on for one more year [in order to better facilitate the transfer to new leadership]”. (loren you do remember saying this correct?)
along with” no elections.”
do you see why i asked now? the board decided to stay on for another year(no elections) now we ARE having elections?
btw… that first post was edited AFTER i asked about it.(it didnt say that originally)
but regardless… now we know there should be a meeting sometime early next yr.
i think 13 yrs of racing at hc constitutes more than “rarely if ever..”
i dont think you want to get into the reasons why some of us stopped going there this summer after all those years… you know exactly why.
and if asking questions about a meeting that was supposed to happen over a month ago seems odd to some well then maybe you should ask why it never happened. remember who cancelled(or should i say prematurely ended) the meeting and what the reasons for that were, you were there.
if people didnt care they wouldnt ask.
wow loren, im suprised. you post one thing to me privately and another on this site.
i guess things will stay as they are then. my concern is not the jacket awards -it was the meeting/elections that were never finished. i understood in your last email/announcement it would take place after the jacket awards.
that is why i asked.
sorry for trying to keep EVERYONE who is interested in positive change informed , not just certain people.
so this event is only for those who are on the jacket list, but then it says “roundtable discussion”..its not a track meeting as there are those who are interested in discussion about the future of the track but if they are not on the list they are not invited?
so the roundtable discussion is “closed” only to those on the jacket list?
loren i think it would be helpful if you postee a clarification on elections /or lack of them for that matter, as i understand they will not be occuring for the 2008 season? if the current board decided to stay on “for one more year”.
please let people know who want to be involved what EXACTLY is going on. im sorry i am not trying to start anything just looking for facts.
