Years ago, in New England, there was a textiles manufacturing facility, run by a Jewish entrepreneur. Right before Thanksgiving, the plant was destroyed by fire. The employees faced an uncertain future, with no money for either Thanksgiving or Christmas, and beyond...let alone a job. Yet, the owner settled quickly with the insurance, and the plant was quickly rebuilt. The key was that he continued to pay all of the employees during the downtime and rebuilding. When the plant reopened in the spring, they were ready to kiss his feet. He was there when they needed him...now, they were more than ready to work extra hours to catch up, and return the favor. Sadly, there are very few employer-employee relationships like this anymore. And unfortunately, most employees have the feeling that "BOSS spelled backwards is Double SOB". :P Daryl ....
