G.E. ought to be used to terrible-tempered Jim Carey's language by now. During the 1958 contract reopener, Carey kept the air blue, and G.E. negotiators walked out. Before the talks began this time, Carey confided to reporters: "People say I have a Napoleonic complex, but Napoleon was a softy compared to Carey."
