Go to school, get new skills.

Vote republican and trust the capitalists to have my back.

I'm eligible to retire from Chrysler May 31, 2021. I started pursuing a business idea last summer in anticipation of that change in my life. If for some reason my plant closes before my retirement date I will jump onto that track full time.

Join the union! United, you'll have more power. Divided you have no power.

Invest your own time and energy in acquiring added skills that will add to your employability.

I had a couple of factory-type jobs after high school. They gave me a pretty good incentive to go to college and get into a professional field of study. I feel bad for anyone who's stuck doing menial labor with no way out.

What action could you take?

Retrain

Gosh it must be a life so insecure for these people because it is not if it is going to happen but when.

Viewing that which has been going on I would select a field and try to gain knowledge in the new field that would provide employment should I lose my current job. By doing so I might be able to improve my income and secure a job until I decide to retire. To not do this would be like playing crap at that age!
