It's happening everywhere in every industry, and that makes it hard for so many of us to get jobs. It's good to be on the same page.

It already happened, and people like to look back at it. If it didn't happen, who knows how things could have turned out?

It doesn't matter. It's already happened. Let's celebrate that GM has worked to pay off the legally required loan amount
5 years early.

That's amazing!
