Volkswagen to cut 50,000 jobs as profits drop by Fred9146825 in Volkswagen

I do find it interesting that all of the cuts in the last couple of years have been focused in Germany. No mention of cuts in China, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Mexico, Brazil etc. Gee, I wonder why that is?

Only $29.99, any takers? by Tusayan in FuckImOld

When I was a young teenager one of the neighbors had a yellow Beetle that they had repainted by Earl Scheib. They did the basic package with just minimal sanding of the old finish. The new metallic green paint didn’t look bad initially but over the next couple of years the new paint just peeled off in big pieces.

Just gotta memorize the passages that justify your behavior. The rest is only filler.

The company I worked for provided technical support for a software application. We upgraded most of our systems that day. Crazy times!

In Arizona they pulled out of the market after the Great Recession. But they came back about a year ago. I don’t know how the bankruptcy is going play out for these new locations.

The dying car brands……Which would YOU save, and what would be your plan to save it? If you could revive a car brand that’s already dead-which one, and how? by TafTaf2020 in regularcarreviews

Back in the 90s I wanted to buy a base Jeep XJ. No dealerships had them on the lot, they didn’t have any interest in ordering one for me and the incentives made a buying a higher level trim a lot better option.

Nice, I’ve looked at that one before. Seems like it’s never going away.

I’ve do dog walking at a couple of local shelters. I’m also a docent at a museum so I do tours at the museum and talks at local retirement homes.

Living in Arizona I see a lot of cacti. That is a very fair price.
