    Exclamation Reinstating Speckler (Ralph Martens) Update

    We had to wait till it was confirmed and had actually happened

    Ralph started back at the plant Yesterday



    He wants to pass on a big thank you to all that were involved in the forum’s efforts to get him reinstated; infront of, and behind the scenes.

    In fairness let’s also congratulate DCX for the rare corporate ability to reverse a decision, that was seemingly set in stone. There is human side to that corporate structure, and now Ralph has his job back at the plant he loves.

    I also congratulate the individuals who took advice to keep their emotions in check, and let the campaign play out. As we can see it has paid dividends.

    This is important: Ralph, through forum exposure, put his faith in us, and also put the beating heart of his family’s future in our hands. Let’s see the long term picture, and continue to protect that heart on forums.

    Good to be back eh Ralph?

    How cool is this place?! Are they going to let Ralph continue doing what he was doing to help the lx community with the status of the cars they have ordered? If I remember right that's what got him let go in the first place, right?

    God bless you and your family Ralph.

    The Magnum has a soul. It has a personality, something all too lacking in the automotive transportation appliances everybody else is offering.

    Looks like I will be buying more DCX products after all. Hopefully dcx will take Ralphs lead and provide a better way for us to track our orders.
