5 BILLION Dollar MegaFactory
Well... we got it. FIVE Billion dollar Tesla Megafactory...... (yeah,, that Billion with a B).6,000 employees (and I don't think that counts the construction crews). Plus a new biofuels refinery AND a new Amazon warehouse.... all in the past month. A LOT of folks will be moving here to take jobs (and a lot won't). New Company in Gardnerville from the bay area... only 1/4 of their employees are wiling to move with the factory (I guess jobs are plentiful in CA these days).
Biggest problem I see here (outside of home prices rising faster than the national debt).. Is getting all the new-hires up to speed to handle positions in a modern automated manufacturing facility (gee... to bad TMCC gutted MY Industrial Maintenance Technology Program (oh yeah.. they "gutted" Dean Verbeck also, the man with the foresight and intelligence to see that this type of program was sorely needed)).... A lot of short-sighted (non) planning.... lots of luck playing catch up... because we are going to STEAL those Technical Students you think are going to flock to your door. WE can do a better job... we've been doing it longer AND continuously... all without the Govt. Grants, paperwork and all the bureaucratic red tape.
Revenge is a dish best served cold (they say)....
