Yes, but it's the factory of the future. There is only one person and a dog working there. The dog is there to make sure the person doesn't touch any controls, and the man is there to feed the dog!

No, if the dogs had a union, there would be two dogs. One to prepare the food, and one to serve it.

What about the 3rd dog whose job it is to tell the other 2 when to do their job?

Dogs don't have coffee cups. They drink it out of a bowl.

I don't work at the plant but I stayed at a Bowling Green Baymont Express. What is your question? Most generally UAW members are not allowed to disclose much.
