[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 932637, member: 12952"] Could this be your source............. Obama Visit Costs 1,500 Workers a Payday by Keith Koffler on January 26, 2012, 7:54 am President Obama arrived in Chandler, Arizona Wednesday to talk jobs, but his appearance cost hundreds of laborers a paid day of work. More than 1,500 workers building the Intel manufacturing facility where Obama appeared were ordered to stay home for security reasons and told they would not be paid for the day, according to KTAR in Phoenix. An Intel spokesman said the days will be made up since the work still must be done, but some workers disagreed and expressed frustration that they were losing overtime pay. From the KTAR piece: [INDENT]“[The president] is here to talk about jobs and the economy and yet he’s forcing middle-class people right out of work for a day,” said a worker who contacted KTAR. [/INDENT] The Intel spokesman said the workers should be “proud” they are part of a project that attracts the president of the United States. [/QUOTE]
