John, he'd realy pissed to learn that our aren't electricians required to have a license to do their work. Many do take the state test, but thats their choice. GM's apprentship is governed by the federal government, not on a state level. And from what I've gathered, they are taught both state and the national code, due to MI having some stricter requirments than the national. Our electricians are also taught OSHA code 1910.330 and foward, which many electricians aren't.



Some of the problem might arise from the fact that we're doing more to prevent outside contractors comming into the plant doing new construction. Again, we've proven that our people are more cost effective than inflated contractor prices.
