The factory is removing third shift work

I went to work last night and there was a note on the break room door, and many of my co-workers and I were surprised to find out that the factory is going to stop production on the third shift, and I am really surprised by the news, especially since all of us have been running a third shift at this factory for the past 20 years. This particular factory supplies all of the Heating and Air Conditioning parts to hundreds of companies on the East Coast. This factory makes air conditioners, heaters, furnaces, heat pumps, media UV air purifiers, and air filters. I have been working third shift for the past eight years and I am not looking forward to moving to a new shift. Most of the guys that work at the Heating and Air Conditioning factory during the day look annoyed, and not only do they have to work with all of the directors and the executives, but they have the hottest temperatures and the most humidity. The factory makes Heating and Air Conditioning parts, but all of us barely have any air conditioning in the assembly shop. The people I was with and I have large overhead fans that remove some of the heat, but it’s still excessive during the day. If they really remove the third shift, I am going to do my best to go to nights instead of mornings. If I get forced to work on an afternoon shift I might take my brother up on an offer to work at his dealer, he is now working for a vehicle dealership and they need someone to change tires and oil. It’s not the most glamorous work, but it pays the same as the Heating & Air Conditioning factory.
