Not Enough American Engineers?
Mexican engineers flood Tesla hiring event in Monterrey
Reuters - The Silicon Valley automaker is recruiting in the United States' neighbor for work on robotics and other automated equipment at its Fremont, California factory, where it aims to build 500,000 cars a year by 2018, a six-fold increase from 2016. The factory will build Tesla's upcoming Model 3.
Mexico boasts a substantial pool of experienced manufacturing engineers, with 19 automotive plants owned by global automakers including General Motors Co (GM.N), Ford Motor Co (F.N), Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCHA.MI) and Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE).
A steady tide of hopefuls showed up at the event unannounced and without an appointment, some having traveled hundreds of kilometers, mistakenly thinking it was an open recruiting fair. Several dozen were turned away.

Yup... Or at least that is what management would have is believe... Hard to believe that we won WWII, the close war, and sent me to the Moon with American engineers, and now they're aren't enough...
Ack... Cold War... DYAC
Engineers are "cost centers" not "future revenue sources."
It was a close thing. Jimmy Carter almost lost it.
It's Kali and their adopted state of Mexico. What's the surprise?
Yay, it's raining! There's a bad grass/.muck fire west of here. Half.under control.
Our German engineers were smarter than their German engineers. Von Braun, anyone?
Has anyone besides me ever met Werner Von Braun? BTW, if you thought Trump was a crappy candidate, look who the Dims are grooming...

Hard to believe those were million dollar homes, even in Canadian dollars...
Mein Gott! I have met some bigs in my time but Herr VB. I salute you!
I think crack shack or mansion is still active. A Canadian website making you guess which was which.
Well the rain stopped ND it's just as hot as it was before.
Dawg, Trump's does not get credit for the first quarter--he hadn't done anything much, which is true even for the second. And you really think those bank regulations should be overturned?? You think you can trust banks? BANKS?????
If we are lucky nothing much will continue to happen.
Liz. The proposed and likely Republican bank "reforms" are dangerous and evil. Do I need to make my position clearer?
> Our German engineers were smarter than their German engineers. Von Braun, anyone?
That's a line from "Ice Station Zebra."
Liz. You may not know this but I lived in Florida in 1960. The sedge land was -supposed- to burn every or every other year. If it took three years it was bad. Four years and was very bad.
Ya...I was probably 8 or 9 years old. Meet him when I had to go to a teacher's education thing with my parents when they couldn't get a babysitter for my sister and me. It was pretty awesome, since we were in the middle of the race to the Moon at that point...
Yup... Controlled burns are an essential management tool in FL...
>look who the Dims are grooming...
Jerry Springer LOL.
I notice that the wikipedia article on him doesn't mention the whorehouse incident.
opps, I stand corrected.
Jerry Springer's whorehouse incident is mentioned in the wikipedia article: in the "Political Career" section.
Jerry Springer, now where moving on up! LMAO what Americans will vote for.
Nope.
Gee, I was quoting the hub. I thought he made it up. Maybe he did, separately.
This one was started by lightning.
We don't deserve a repubic.
NASA DOES them al the time.
Dawgifornia is a titular Empire precisely because of all the excesses of democratic republics.
Are you a.parliamentary system?
The hub mentioned Al Frankin.
Shanghai Disneyland is opening.
Up another 100$
I'd take Jery Springer over Gavin Newsome any day in the week.
Gavin Newsome is Babs Boxer with LGBT infinite armor.
>The hub mentioned Al Frankin.
What as, court jester, national clown?
> Are you a.parliamentary system?
No. Federalist with stronger circumventions. Prefectures have "duties" and "obligations" where the Federal system can only intervene in mutually agreed upon situations. That's a mixed bag.
Help! The Great Red Spot on Jupiter is shrinking!
And it's raining diamonds there. Is raining men better?
As trying to run for prez
Me: What?
Hub sez to tell Dawg that at least it's not caused by carbon dioxide.
Nitey nite.
Zillow say my McMansion is up $2,100 last 30 days! I think I'm going to use their estimate for my wealth sheet! I'm Richer then I thought! LMAO!
In another month you will be even richer!
But iTs imaginary money.
$2100? That's three days not 30.
And Ford is up just enough to let me sleep well. Time to look at GE?
Liz tell your dear spouse that CO2 is a magic molecule that acts as a thermostat throughout the universe.
Michael Kors Will close 100+ stores. The retail carnage is gaining momentum. The real sufferers are going to be those silly pretzel and lemonade stores in the malls.
Good Morning!
30 days here in the outback. Things move slower here. :)
Nah, they launder money.
Good Morning.😀 I wish the contractor would start work. The turtle damage in the back is fenced off, bit still dangerous. The bathrooms upstairs are 40 years old and were ugly when new.
I wonder if Zillow will notice when it's done.
Looks like I should buy the dip when Home Depot hits 120 or so.
Hope the assessor doesn't notice.
Pretty sure you will see $135 so $120 is possible on overshoot.
Motley Fool sez Ford is a cheap stock in a high flying market. Your thing.
Not sure it IS overshoot. Sure I mostly visit one store, but the lot is always full,.people are buying, not merely shopping, including us. EVERY time he buys a widget, I get more marigolds. The people are always plentiful and helpful. Every time we visit there. Like 3 times a week. At least.
3% only. Homestead.
Shrinkage happens...
I'd say good morning, but it seems were looking at about week without sun..
😣
Everyday is good, some are better. :)
COFEFE to everyone.
Don't worry, the nation is in good covfefe.
Went to the Menard's in Waukesha (West of Milwaukee) this past weekend. Huge store, two stories with a long sloped moving walkway (like in airports) to go between floors with your cart. Place was packed. I know I contributed to Home Depot's bottom line with all the tile I bought there, and the toilet and sink at Menard's to finish off the master bath. Keep up Zillow, I need to be a little less underwater when I sell.
Do I mean covfefe?
We had to dodge a turtle crossing the road. Why? To get to the other side.
Why did you need to get to the other side?
In Oklahoma it's why did the Armadillo cross the road?
I flew over flyover!!!
> "Why did you need to get to the other side?"
The NH State liquor store had Beefeater's on sale?
> "In Oklahoma it's why did the Armadillo cross the road? "
Lost the mascot job to "Pistol Pete?"
I hope the turtle didn't get squashed.
BTW. No new topic until someone, anyone at least mentions the engineer joke in the top post.
Trump do anything weird today?
Why is it an engineer joke? Wouldn't any profession do?
Anybody remember in WLA a bar named Pistol Dawn?
I don't get what's so funny about a guy who drove a train? :)
Hahaha. Flying over more of b flyover
The covfefe posts are hillarious.
There is now Mexican made Trump toilet paper.
I am here and feeling like I'm still moving up and down.
It is a wonderful world where we can have a new post and the opportunity to enjoy it.
