Apparently, Mitsubishi's 380 sales in Australia aren't quite the golden shining sun they'd hoped for. Targeted for 2,500 sales a month to be profitable, the average number is half that. As such, they're reducing production levels by 5,000 and laying off 12% of their workforce. Meanwhile, we hear they have "Super Trouper" on repeat around the office for no apparent reason. [Thanks to Punkey for the tip.]
