Those boots were made for walkin'

Ford Motor Company recently proposed a policy that dictates that employees working at the Dearborn facility who do not drive a Ford vehicle will not be allowed to park in the main employee parking lot. Employees can park any Ford-family car in the lot - so those union clowns can park their Aston Martins and Jags up close and personal. Anyone else better bring snow boots, because they will be parking a half-mile away in a secondary lot.

I applaud this move. If you work for Ford, you should have enough pride and confidence in the product you are supporting to own it. What kind of message does it send if someone works for Ford and drives a Honda. Ok - maybe if you did not factor in the discount that employees get, you could make a convincing argument that Honda makes a better car. That does not matter in my eyes. If the employees are not supportive of the company they work for... well, I think they are getting off easy with an extra exercise requirement.
