Genius engineer was fired after saving the company You Fired the Backbone of Detroit ReelShort

Transcript

00:00College students. As the company's silence raises questions about accountability, authorities are investigating.

00:05God damn it!

00:07Do you see this? They're calling our car a burning coffin.

00:11They act like we killed those kids ourselves.

00:13We need to figure out why the door jammed or Webster's going belly under.

00:16Hear you, but we've already dropped 100K on diagnostic tests alone and nothing, not a...

00:21I don't want to hear your excuses. You're a goddamn Ivy League graduate.

00:25I pay you $200,000 a year, either figure it out or find a new job.

00:31And what the hell do you think you're doing?

00:33Tinkering around. We have to run a whole AI diagnostic system and you're over here fiddling.

00:38With all due respect, Mr. Russell, I know the Webster Corsair, like the back of my hand.

00:44I designed this car back in the day. I'll figure out what's wrong with it.

00:46We have a million-dollar AI diagnosis who can't turn up anything, but you're going to figure it out with a $5 wrench?

00:52Well, fancy gadgets and high-minded degrees can be important, but sometimes what you need is plain old experience.

01:00You know what? Go ahead. I got nothing to lose. But if anything goes wrong, it's on your ass.

01:04Don't worry. I won't mess this up. Let's go.

01:07Found it.

01:26See that?

01:27From a shirt.

01:28The car owner must have made a legal modification, snagged on a thread during the installation, and jammed the latch during the impact.

01:35Webster's not at fault.

01:37You saved the company a few million, buddy.

01:39Let's go show the boss.

01:40You are embarrassing me, and you're embarrassing yourself.

01:43I think I found the problem.

01:47Ah, you old son of a bitch. You did it.

01:50All right, I'm going to go to the press and tell the board all the good news.

01:53You're a hero at Webster Motor.

02:00Attention, everyone. This concludes today's shift.

02:03Please shut down your stations and clock out.

02:05Drive safe, and we'll see you tomorrow.

02:13Oh, Mr. Walker. Can I have a word?

02:16Oh, of course.

02:18Um, this is a car my nephew got from his grandmother.

02:30It's a collector's item, which means it's one of a kind, and you're the only one I trust to fix it.

02:35You know, it's funny. Last week it was a plane. This week it's a car.

02:39Your nephew sure likes to break things, huh?

02:41They're just messy, teenagers.

02:43Tell me about it. My daughter was the same way.

02:46I can have it back to you tomorrow.

02:48Great. Is your payment 100k?

02:53That's Wolf. It's an easy fix. You don't have to pay me.

02:58Good to see you.

02:59Oh, Hank, wait.

03:04Hank, wait.

03:09I'll be straight with you, okay? You've been at Webster for 40 years.

03:12You know cars. You're one of the best engineers in the world, but they treat you worse than the mechanics that work for an hourly rate.

03:20Why don't you come work for me at Mach 15?

03:23We're developing a new supercar.

03:25Silver Lynx Model A, and I want you to be in charge.

03:27The starting pay is $10 million.

03:29That's a lot of money, but you said so yourself, Ms. Wolfe.

03:36I've been with Webster Motors for 40 years, and any time I have remaining, I just assume it be with them.

03:43Old mucks like me, we're the backbone of Detroit's industry.

03:47You got a good job on your hands, and you should give it to a youngster.

03:51As for me, just stick to toy cars.

03:54Hey, look who's early.

04:02Hey, how you doing, man?

04:03Good.

04:04Oh, hey.

04:05Hank.

04:05Here comes, uh, Tom Norris.

04:08You reckon he's here to give us a bonus?

04:10I doubt it.

04:12Move.

04:13Move, move, move, move.

04:15Hey, listen up.

04:17I have an announcement.

04:18Webster Motors has gone through a change of hands.

04:21We've been purchased by Tesalux.

04:26Yes, that Tesalux, the EV car company.

04:30So a big man upstairs, now some guy named Elon.

04:34Tesalux is a tech company.

04:36Big emphasis on tech.

04:38So all you boomers, you're fired.

04:44You're fired.

04:45What?

04:46Wait, what?

04:47Wait, wait, wait, wait.

04:49We're all fired.

04:51That can't be right.

04:53Oh, you need me to spell it out for you?

04:54Fine.

04:56Webster Motors has purchased a cutting-edge AI detection system from Apex AI for over 10

05:02billion.

05:03And let me tell you, this software makes all of you has-been boomers look like a bunch

05:08of fucking amateurs.

05:10It'll do more for this company in 10 minutes than you could do in 10 years.

05:14So, go home.

05:17Wait for death to come knocking.

05:20Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

05:21Now, hold on.

05:22That ain't right.

05:23Look, we are the backbone of Webster Motors, right?

05:27We built this company up from the ground.

05:29Hell, some of us were here before Webster was.

05:31You can't just let us go.

05:32That is workplace discrimination, right, boys?

05:35Yeah, right.

05:36We're gonna fucking sue you.

05:37Well, it's not ageism if you're just bad.

05:40We're a tech company now.

05:42We need computer people who write AI that does what you do, but they do it better and

05:47faster.

05:49Face it.

05:50This is the 21st century.

05:51Everything is fast and digital.

05:54It's time for you washed up old farts to pack your little bags and fuck off.

05:59Because like it or not, you've been replaced.

06:00I might not know anything about AI, but I do know one thing.

06:05These machines here, they're finicky.

06:07And unless real people are monitoring the assembly line at all times, it's only a matter

06:12of time before something goes boom.

06:15And all production stops.

06:17That's right.

06:18What do you mean everything goes boom?

06:20I've worked here for 40 years.

06:23I know these machines.

06:24They need to be checked on and resurviced.

06:27Otherwise, you're gonna lose billions.

06:29Oh, okay.

06:31So, so, so you're saying the reason that I can't fire you old farts is because I need

06:37someone to watch the machine all day or it's gonna go boom?

06:40That's right.

06:41And you better make sure they have the experience to know what they're looking for.

06:44Oh, holy fuck.

06:46You're a real fucking shameless one, you know.

06:49I know you won't be able to get another job, but that doesn't mean you can make shit up

06:52either.

06:52I'm not making anything up.

06:54I'm telling you how it is based on my experience.

06:57All right.

06:58Old man, I gotta go.

06:59All right.

07:00But don't think you're anything special because of yesterday.

07:03I downloaded the source code from the diagnostic test myself, and that car was perfectly fine.

07:09You lucked out with that screw.

07:11So all you need to do is go back and rot in hospice.

07:15No, no, no, no, how dare you?

07:17How dare you?

07:18We built this city with our own hands.

07:20We are the ones that brought industry to Detroit.

07:22Yeah.

07:22We did all that hard labor so kids like you could go run off to college.

07:27And now this is how you're going to treat us?

07:28Shut up.

07:29Right?

07:29Shut up.

07:30You disgusting old fucking hicks.

07:33Or I'll call the cops.

07:35As of now you're fired.

07:36So this is trespassing.

07:38Tom, you need to tell the assembly line supers about the maintenance.

07:43If something happens to one of these machines, it's going to cost Webster millions.

07:47And it's a safety hazard.

07:49I do not give a fuck about your experience.

07:52That is all subjective bullshit.

07:54We have the cold hard facts right here.

07:57Our new AI detection system will be fully operational in a few short days.

08:01You really think it can't handle a few finicky machines?

08:05It'll have them back in tip-top shape before you old schmucks need to get your gloves on.

08:09Now hurry up and scram or you can forget about your final fucking paycheck.

08:19It's all right.

08:20It's all right.

08:21Let it go, okay?

08:22Look, you warned him plenty about the assembly line, huh?

08:24It's his own fault now if you won't miss it.

08:28Come on, fellas.

08:28Let's go.

08:29Let's get out of here.

08:30Guy's a creep.
