I just read that MAP is closed for two weeks, but also has two weeks downtime in July, weeks of 7/5 and 7/12. Can anyone (MAP ees) confirm?

I thought I read somewhere that they will not have the normal July shutdown because of this, but I could be wrong.

Can’t seem to find the information now.

I think someone posted a few weeks ago that Ford announced they were canceling their two week shutdown in July to keep up with production. Now the 2 week shutdown in May, seems like they will not be getting ahead after all. Essentially their two week break just got moved up ahead of time. Hope they didn’t re-instate the July shutdown

I believe that’s the plan. No telling if they can actually get everything together by then, but hopefully the May shutdowns help. I have heard some firsthand info that the struggles continue.

Document I was looking at is dated 5/10/21, so Monday of this week (shows May and July). Maybe it's wrong, so I was hoping to hear from a MAP employee.

I don't understand.
In some situations, inappropriate laughter may be our brain's way of breaking anxiety and tension — a built-in coping mechanism to diffuse bad vibes or stress. ... Nervous laughter could simply be an involuntary and instantaneous attempt at self-prescribed laugh therapy.

I asked someone from Ford and MAP (along with most others) is skipping summer shut down.

This would seem to conflict with photos I've seen of build dates for those weeks, though I guess it's possible they get rescheduled a third time...
