I am surprised Roob wasn't tarred and feathered for some of his stunts. Roobs, real name really is, 'low pay jobs Roob'. The stamping plant comes to mind as one of his bigger disasters. He actually thought that workers would allow him to drop their pay from $30 per hour to $15 per hour, minus any benefits they had. Poor Roob had already promised the Illinois company he was trying to lure to Indiana that it, 'was in the bag'. He thought that people were so scared of losing their jobs that they would follow his direction. Didn't work out that way and Roob was shamed in the community. The GM workers were relocated and some retired.
