[Shotimes] Re: (OT) More UAW workers bankrupt - Detroit news

[G Kerby Haltom]

Never, ever count overtime as steady income.  Lots of
people make that mistake.  The overtime train will
come to a stop eventually.

But Mark is right.  Looks like most of these folks
would have run up their debt no matter how much they
made.

Although, I think I'd be happy to drive a forklift for
150K a year...
