Yes Bill, that is sort of the point of a strike. You could end the strike today if you wanted to.
Maybe stop funneling so much of the profits to executives and shareholders and they would be able to offer more.
The problem is that if he doesn’t continue to do that, he will be fired. That is literally the CEOs only responsibility, to the shareholders

Bill Ford not going to be fired, or even reprimanded. He’s literally a Ford of the founding Fords, “the great grandson of company founder Henry Ford,” with an ownership stake: it’s the family business.
This is ALL about profit, even for him. All carrot, no stick for him personally.
“Hey, guys? I really need you guys to come back to work now, all the not working is starting to eat into my profit margins.”
If they want the strike to end that bad, sounds like it’s time to pay better/give better benefits.

Maybe they could try making simple reliable cars again.
The best Ford I ever had was an Escort, which I learned was actually a Mazda behind the badge.
Had a Focus ST, great little car, no issues. M moms explorer and my dad’s f150s are electrical and infotainment nightmares. Each time they take them in it takes weeks and doesn’t really fix anything.
My current daily is a Focus ST, love it.
Your company’s past, present and future is your workers. If they are saying “fuck you, pay me”, pay them.
If you can’t pay your workers a living wage, you don’t deserve to exist as a company.

If the company was really at stake then they would capitalate and come to a compromise with the strikers.
Correction. Shareholder Income is at stake.

Fuck you, pay them.
Thanks for letting them know the strike is effective!
“Cmon guyyys cut it ouuut”
Sound like the strike is doing what they need it to do.
Sounds like somebody won’t get his yearly bonus…
