"... Something's not right!" "

"Huh? What's wrong, all of a sudden?"

As I gaze at myself, Jennifer opens her eyes to a horse that will fork her delicious spaghetti. Why are you interrupting me?

"Don't pregnant women usually have morning sickness? But you don't have any news."

This is what I'm curious about. I Googled diligently for reports from one of the institutions. In the United States, an average of 70-85% of women have morning sickness. However, Jennifer belongs to the remaining 15-30%.

"Well, do you want me to get morning sickness? Is that it?"

Jennifer, who put the spaghetti in her fork, rolled her lips out, smiling wildly. I often see a prankster's smile in my stomach these days.

"Oh, well, not at all. I like it, too. I was just wondering."

I'm just really curious. I used to want to get hit by a falcon first. I've been around a lot lately, but I have no idea. It was good, but I was just asking because I was anxious.

"Can you come to the event today? Don't be so hard on yourself."

"It's okay. It's for a good cause. I like the wind, too."

Yesterday, the first snow fell. It was only after the second week of December that the first snow arrived. It was a little late compared to last year, but it was really snowy.

It's been over two months since I came to Korea, and time has passed. Now that I have to attend events at the end of the year in the United States, I have to leave. Today, for the sake of our associates who have worked hard, I have decided to hold a hot dog giving event and Jennifer will hold a daily English class.

Hot dog events are no big deal. In the United States, I already have barbecue outdoors about once a year, and every time I grill and distribute meat.

But it's winter, so I don't do it outdoors. Instead, the Buyeong Auto Factory, which will take place today, has a large warehouse that can fit thousands of people, so we decided to do it there.

I'm still going to take something like a portable stand to make a hot dog indoors, and I'm going to bake a sausage and put it in a hot dog bun.

Early in the lunch hour, I prepared to set up hot dog vendors and tables in a large warehouse. You can order others to do this because you have good numbers, but there's nothing I can't do, young man.

On these days, executives and managers often work in the United States. After I left, of course, the executives who followed me and the management positions of the company all came out and got busy preparing. Just because these people don't have an hour or two doesn't mean the company stops.

I sweated hard for an hour, setting it on the table inside. Luckily, the weather suddenly warmed up as if it had snowed, and it was warm even when the sausage and hamburger meat were cooked. Otherwise, the warehouse would be so spacious that it would be a bit cold.

As lunchtime approaches, employees line up for three or three. I'm grilling meat, so I can hear everything from afar, but my ears are so bright. Maybe some of the elixir I took when I was a kid went to my ears.

[Oh, you're even better-looking in person.]

[Do you want me to take a picture with you later?]

[Oh, dear. And then what if he gets mad at you?]

[Right? But when do we get a chance to meet again? It's such a waste.]

'Obviously there's a huge cultural difference.'

Buried in the loud noises of the people, he said he wanted to take a picture, but it's no big deal if it's like America, but two female employees, no. It's still a eunuch. I laughed.

"What would you like?"

"Yes? Yes. I want anything, anything, anything!"

I ask the woman who approached me what to give, and I make a big speechless face. It's awkward for me to ask. It's definitely different from hot dogs and hamburgers, but asking for anything is even more troubling.

"Speak freely, Chairman. The staff is uncomfortable because you speak so highly."

It's okay. The station that was standing next to me is helping me. I think you might be right, but it's annoying to pick a horse while looking at people's faces. It's just the same in English, but it's not that easy.

"Here's a vegetable sausage, Italian sausage, and a hamburger patty, which one would you like? It's okay, so think about it slowly."

"Yes, vegetable sausage."

Only then will I answer. In turn, I put the cooked sausage or patty in the grill for those who came to me. Since I was giving food to the staff while working physically like a mother, my heart felt unhappy too.

They're all working for me anyway. They're not public companies, and I'm a lone shareholder. I don't remember, but I thought it was an opportunity to meet the faces of the people who work for me. Or maybe I won't have to go to my company for life

I put vegetables, tomatoes, and other sauces on the table next to me so I can eat them whenever I like, but I take them to a burger or hot dog.

"The staff are very fond of you, Chairman."

"Really? Let's do it once a year, then."

"Perhaps the first group of Johnstones to give out food like this to the Group Chairman himself. Hahaha."

I wanted to go somewhere, but in the meantime, Director Jeong Seung-hoon, who came back next to me, smiles pleasantly and conveys the atmosphere around him. Maybe some of them like to solve their lunch for free today. That's enough.

"Sir, thank you so much for keeping your promise.

"Yes? What does that mean? Promise?"

A staff member bows down and thanks him for handing him a hamburger. By the way, I don't know what you're thanking me for. He seemed to be working in a factory because he was wearing work clothes paid by the company.

"I got fired again last year, and I just got back. Every day I do it now, but coming back like this... it's overwhelming."

While speaking, the employee pauses to see if he is strangled. From what I hear, it wasn't easy to get back to work every year because of the recession. I didn't do it myself, but I was also moved by the gratitude of tears.

"You've been through a lot."

I briefly told the staff what was going on, and they asked me to take a picture with them, and I stood next to them and posed. I brought a camera to see if I wanted to take a picture in advance.

Once is hard, then it's easy. When I took my first photo together, people were making similar requests back then.

Initially, he acquired a factory here that was representative of the 'violent' struggle and expressed concern around him. Automobile unions are usually a little rough, but in the United States, the problem of Detroit's union is being flagged by Americans.

When I went to various forums in the United States, there were a lot of people who were not hesitant about 'Detroit Auto Union', and when I read it quietly, I even wondered if Korea's H Auto Union's help had come from Detroit. Americans also hate Detroit 3rd parties as much as South Koreans hate H-car unions.

Of course, at first I hesitated to acquire the factory here and voluntarily brought a blank deed from the union. They also actively cooperated because they knew who should be the owner of the company. But that doesn't mean that the voice of the aggressor disappears overnight. underneath and activates. When you sit down, you want to lie down.

The HR team at Johnston Group has created a new way of managing employees. It was closer to employees and moved in the long term.

Previously, I had to work hard every day, so I couldn't afford it, but I put a lot of money into it, renewed it, and focused on future-oriented planning and execution rather than short-term results overall. A new form of workforce management was also one of them.

In 2000-2001, 1,800 people were fired from the factory. That's 30 to 40% of the workforce.

The Johnstone car that acquired the company operated a 'HR Management Center' for former workers who had been fired and contracted jobs. This is not just about cars, but about this time electronics and construction weren't 100% rehired, so both companies created the same place.

In the past, workers who would have run to the union office started coming to the Workforce Management Center, which was set up by the company one by one, and then the union office began to fly. This had to happen for a reason.

First of all, the old fire crews who came to the center provided free lunch at the restaurant. It is not long for the company, but it is said that the parties received a hot response. Because I don't have a job, I feed people with poor pockets for free, but there's no way I won't come. Every day, people rushed in and ran the restaurant in triple shifts.

The second is because they rehired one by one, depending on the order, circumstances, and skills of the people who actually enrolled. Large-scale investments led people management centers. Let's do this: 'You must register with the center in order to be reinstated.' There have been a growing number of people who come and go from time to time as rumors circulate.

The center was also responsible for short-term measures and retraining. With the rapid increase in labor demand for electronics and construction, he introduced the occasion when he was willing to work temporarily on the construction site, and gave him a job through retraining when he found another place.

Not only that, in fact, the people who took care of their employees at the company and reinstated themselves became loyal to the company. It was the company, not the union, who helped in times of difficulty. And I had a firm belief that the company would take care of them.

In total, more than 2,000 people have rejoined in the past two years, including 1,500 full-time jobs returned through the center and more than 500 full-time jobs that have been re-hired and re-hired.

As these people were deployed to the factory, they claimed to have taken direct hits on the shortened labor force. The union chairman's words didn't work on the ground.

2,000 workers who had more difficulties than those who remained had to listen to the labour centers and management rooms they had experienced. A performance center that has already provided a practical benefit with a union for words only. I can almost win.

In particular, the 500 people who went from part-time to full-time became enthusiastic followers of the Johnstone Group's policies. It was because the company had unexpected favors for those of us who had even turned away before.

I heard that almost all of them had been rehired at first, and I was surprised to hear that they were working full-time. It was a "miracle" that couldn't have happened anywhere else.

My instructions for gradual reductions in part-time employment were simply taken as they had already promised similar policies on Johnstone cables.

There is no need to have contract workers, except for seasonal factors or workforce demand due to a single contract. The businesses we do require a lot of skill. Especially in order to perpendicularize the production process of automobiles in the region, and to increase quality and productivity, I came to mean a lot to those who benefited, although it didn't make much difference to me anyway.

I finished the hot dog event at the hall, and I toured the factory and talked to the staff. I was very pleased that the factory atmosphere was quite soft and felt lively in the faces of the field personnel. It was my first visit in two years.

They say it's hard to develop car engines, but they don't know that. It may not be easy in Korea, but it's already been made in the United States and Germany for over a hundred years. It's like an engine in the backyard going into space.

Honestly, if you spend a little money in the United States, it's not that hard to develop an engine. But that's what American companies do. If it is in the name of a Korean company, it should not be recruiting itself.

Of course, the Johnstone Techno Center has already completed the engine development. The team was formed by scouting experienced personnel from the United States and Germany, home of the automobile, making great progress.

When I looked around the facilities where the new laboratory developed engines and new vehicles for equipping various technologies would be produced, I headed to the annex. At the annex, Jennifer was opening her daily English class because the time had run out.

When I arrived in front of the classroom and looked inside through the window, Jennifer was working hard to explain something. Looking at the clock, it looks like it's already 20 minutes past its deadline. Jennifer waves her hands, turning her head this way, to see if she felt anything strange.

Noisy, Noisy,

Just a little longer. Jennifer walks out the door. Looks like class is over.

"What do you think? I'm trying to be a teacher."

"Yes, I loved it. I don't know how good the kids are."

After leaving the classroom, Jennifer looks very mentioned, and her face is quite amusing. Elderly children praise goodness.

'Heheh. Then the kids will be nice. Is that what you call it?'

I smiled inside, but I think I'm in the fifth or sixth grade of elementary school, and the troublesome kids wouldn't even be here. When I came here a while ago, I suddenly remembered my question and asked the cabin.

The studio said they missed afternoon classes to attend the daily English class. Apparently the parents have brought the children here to attend. I asked for an English class on weekdays without any thought, because I didn't have any kids.

"If I was in Korea in winter, I'd build an English camp for winter vacation..."

In the car returning home, Jennifer says, "I'm very sorry." It's too bad to fold into today's event.

"Did you have so much fun?"

"Yeah, I didn't know. They're so cute."

Jennifer strokes her belly as she speaks. However, something is awkward because there is no change in the body. The boat was too flat.

"You don't have to do it yourself. Why don't you start a Jennifer English class? You can send an instructor to America."

"Heheh, should I? That'll do, won't it?"

I smile brightly as if I've found a solution. I was confused about what was so good, and it gave me an answer. He said he was embarrassed because he asked when they would do it again, but whoever would do it for him was burdened with his heart. It was no big deal, but I felt good doing it, Jennifer and I. Turns out I'm a good guy, too.

Luckily, it was posted on Saturday. Have a good weekend.

And the last episode was a shock to both of us, and the chief scolded us instead, and we were surprised.

The text compared Detroit and Hyundai Union, and the author hated the comments he saw (on the irrelevant site) as well as the "wage comparison" and criticism of Detroit union workers.

Not long ago, a big city called Detroit finally filed for bankruptcy? In the photos of the article, the large warehouses and buildings in the city turned into homeless playgrounds. It was a bitter picture.
