Jim Repace Quotations

Maytag is on a mission to close our plant.

People are extremely worried. The people here want their jobs and want to produce a good product.

We haven't decided which way to go. We really haven't looked at the financial situation of the company.

We don't know if Whirlpool would remain in the floor-care business if it bought Maytag. But assuming they spin us off, we're still better off away from Maytag.

To say what would be here and what would be in El Paso, Texas, and Juarez, Mexico, would be subject to the management team and the union. But would I like to see that Eagle line back in North Canton? Yes, I would.

We at Hoover are definitely pulling for Whirlpool.

People are under a lot of stress. They don't know what's going to happen next.

The membership has had a lot of questions on how this buyout may work.
