This how the aholes in my company treated our vendors. Vendors said go suck it, leading to increasing lead times to "yeah I dk when you'll get stuff" for a year. The fact it happened 2x in a few year is mine boggling.

Ah, did you work for a Volkswagen or General Motors supplier in the late 1990s and early 2000s?

Because I recall that exact situation, and the resulting crash of quality.

Rofl I won't say much but let's say I'm very certain they were rehired somewhere I know and then fired for the same behavior. Lessons here is don't hire anyone from auto industry. They are just bullies.
