Hi All,

    I once worked for medium sized jewellery company that I will not
    name. This was in a small town. The company had a store in the town.
    The local editor of the paper asked if the jeweller would like to
    take out permanent space in the help wanted adds. The store no longer
    exist. 

    Some had said the word,"Union" in this company. These companies are
    not in the league of General Motors. If a union was to start, the
    store would fold the next day. Then start again under a new name in
    two weeks. For this reason there are few that are compentant at the
    bench, anymore. Unless they own the business. That would be a person
    like myself. Since I was in the lower staff position when I started,
    I would not make those type of remarks now.
