Oh, I've forgot something I've heard about :
It is about the disapearing of Agfa color paper (shame on me ;-) )
Befor Bayer get rid of Agfa, they had a plan to dismiss a lot of workers
in order to cut salary costs. The rationale they put on the selection
criteria gave a huge lot on the workers at the color plant factory... It
was so much that they where not enought people remaining to make one
shift ..... So they decided to stop this highly profitable factory...
I think that Kodak and Fuji owe Bayer people a medal ..... and some
shares ;-)
Dunno if it's true, sounded like "could be" to me (as a former Alcatel
people, I "knew" this kind of management...)
We are fortunate because Agfa workers bought the whole lot ... maybe
they wont fire in their foot ?
