Quote of the Day: Maurice "The Grizz" Taylor

The French workforce gets paid high wages but works only three hours. They get one hour for breaks and lunch, talk for three and work for three....

I told this to the French union workers to their faces. They told me that's the French way!

Titan is going to buy a Chinese tire company or an Indian one, pay less than one Euro per hour wage and ship all the tires France needs. You can keep the so-called workers....

How stupid do you think we are? Titan is the one with the money and the talent to produce tires. What does the crazy union have? It has the French government.

~ Maurice "The Grizz" Taylor, Chairman and CEO of Titan International

      Maybe so, but it is his right not to invest. I hope the French worker proves him wrong.

      Je pense que Mr Taylor est intéressé par Goodyear en France. Comme ce monsieur est un modèle de capitaliste, je pense qu'il ne perdrait pas autant de temps avec cette société si cette société ne l’intéressait pas. Je pense qu'il a besoin de Goodyear France pour vendre ses produits en France et en Europe. Ses usines sont aux Etats Unis, il y a trop de taxes pour que les produits fabriqués aux USA soient compétitifs en Europe. Donc il lui faut une base en Europe, mais avant il souhaite briser les forces syndicales de Goodyear. C'est une démarche plutôt maladroite; en France on parle beaucoup pour obtenir des accords entre les ouvriers et le patron.
      Bye, MARCO. FRANCE.

      Hello, news(short stories) of the exchanges of mail between TAYLOR and MONTEBOURG. French answered, threatening logical, severe Taylor with customs controls! Taylor answered "French are too expensive because of their welfare benefits". It's not serious Mr Taylor, it does not prevent the done well work.

      The best revenge is beating them in the global marketplace. Let's see of it will happen.
