I pray that this new manager is not sent here to prep for closure. Closure would be devastating for all loggers and their employees that support that mill, not to mention how mill employees would be affected. All business in the area would also be affected.
Look on the “sunny side” until it may or may not come about!
He looks like an honest politician who will come in and sacs the day
It never ceases to amaze me how some miserable, “glass-half-empty” people put a negative spin on everything in life. I’ve met many people to whom I’ve wanted to ask, “have you ever in your life gotten to the end of a day and thought, ‘this was a good day?’”
Yep, signs are that the mill is gonna be sold! Notice that the current manager is promoted to be director of container board mills and Pensacola is not mentioned as being one under his umbrella!
You betcha!!!! Duhhh… The writing is and has been on the wall
Dola, I thought the exact same thing as I read the article before I read your comment.
Is this the guy they bring in when they plan to close a mill or sell it off perhaps?
