Ok my husband currently works at Spartech Polycom in PA. he makes 16.70 an hr and his benefits are anthem blue cross (not great benefits) they only offer 401k not a pension plan. He is next in line for supervisor training because he honestly is 1 of the hardest workers their . he is the only guy who can run the twin screw line so he is a necessety right now at his plant. He just recently got offered a job at a union job at Washington penn plastics as a floater for an operator I believe it is 30 mins farther than his cureent job and he would take a 1 dollar paycut, but it is a union plant with a pension plan and better benefits high mrk bcbs. The only other drawback is he would be starting at the bottom again where he has like 100 guys under him right now. He hasput in his 2 wk notice, but they keep having meetings with him saying its a bad idea to switch that he is climbing the corp. ladder at a fast rate. Oh I almost forgot the plant at wpp only has 5 lines and spartech does have alot of them but wpp machines are all updated while spartechs haven't updated theirs but claim to be going to in the next year cause they fired the top guy for bad spending so they got a new guy who is supposed to put spartech back up to par.
I am sorry this is so long but my husband is afraid to make the wrong choice with the economy and all. Close All
Resolved Question: Obama and Jim Johnson relationship does it conflict with Obama rhetoric ?
James Johnson, one of three people tapped by Mr. Obama recently to oversee the search for his running mate, took at least five real estate loans totaling more than $7 million from Countrywide Financial Corp. through an informal program for friends of the company's CEO, Angelo Mozilo, the Wall Street Journal reported Saturday. The Journal said at least two of the mortgages, among a series of loans made available to people Countrywide officials called "friends of Angelo," were at rates below market averages, though it is difficult to predict a market rate without access to nonpublic information about a ...

James Johnson, one of three people tapped by Mr. Obama recently to oversee the search for his running mate, took at least five real estate loans totaling more than $7 million from Countrywide Financial Corp. through an informal program for friends of the company's CEO, Angelo Mozilo, the Wall Street Journal reported Saturday. The Journal said at least two of the mortgages, among a series of loans made available to people Countrywide officials called "friends of Angelo," were at rates below market averages, though it is difficult to predict a market rate without access to nonpublic information about a borrower's credit history and other factors that can reduce interest charges on a loan.
Among the loans to Mr. Johnson, according to the Journal, were a $5 million home equity line of credit against a house in Ketchum, Idaho, a 5.25% loan of $1.3 million for a home in Palm Desert, Calif., and a 3.875% loan of $971,650 for a home in Washington, D.C. The interest rates applied for the first five years of the loans.
"That reeks most high," a public relations specialist and vocal critic of Mr. Mozilo, Bonnie Russell of Del Mar, Calif., said. "Where's the 'change to believe in' if they're playing the same old game using the same old players?"
On the campaign trail, Mr. Obama has criticized Countrywide's executives. "These are the people who are responsible for infecting the economy and helping to create a home foreclosure crisis. Two million people may end up losing their homes," Mr. Obama said in March at a town hall meeting in Lancaster, Pa.
The Chicago Tribune reported that the senator from Illinois "fumed" over a total of $19 million in bonuses set to be paid to Mr. Mozilo and the president of Countrywide, David Sambol. "They get a $19 million bonus while people are at risk of losing their home. What's wrong with this picture?" Mr. Obama asked.
In a written statement issued in March, the senator called the payments "an outrage" and suggested Mr. Mozilo and others had "tricked" homeowners into unaffordable loans. "These executives crossed the line to boost their bottom line," Mr. Obama declared.
A spokesman for the Republican National Committee, Danny Diaz, yesterday called the loans to Mr. Johnson "highly questionable" and said they conflicted with Mr. Obama's public comments. "Barack Obama needs to immediately address this matter; otherwise, his rhetoric will continue to prove to be nothing more than complete hypocrisy," Mr. Diaz said.
Aides to Mr. Obama had no immediate response yesterday afternoon to a request for comment for this article. An attorney for Mr. Johnson, Brian Brooks, did not respond to e-mail and telephone messages seeking comment yesterday. However, in a statement to the Journal, Mr. Brooks defended the loans as "well within the band of standard industry practices with regard to price and structure of loans to borrowers of Mr. Johnson's background."
