Layoffs at Kapolei Golf Club - Whatever will King Obama do?
khon ^ | 1/28/2013

Posted on 01/29/2013 3:54:21 PM PST by FreeAtlanta

The Kapolei Golf Club laid off 14 out of 110 employed at the course recently. The employees were from various departments.

"After careful consideration and full review of operations, we had to make the difficult decision of reducing our staff at Kapolei Golf Club," said Micah Kane, chief operating officer of Pacific Links Hawaii, in a statement. "This shift enables Pacific Links Hawai'i to operate at optimal efficiency and better provide the high quality of service that our customers have come to expect and solidify the future of our remaining employees. We do not anticipate any further staff cuts."

Other courses owned by Pacific Links Hawai'i are not affected.

Pacific Links Hawaii also owns and operates Royal Hawaiian, Makaha Golf Club (East), Makaha Valley Country Club (West), and Olomana.

What will Barry do?

Designate the course as a National Park and turn the staff into SEIU members, of course.

110 people are employed at this golf course before the layoffs? Good grief, that must be one expensive club to belong to.

King Hate America will assist those affected to form a union and get his goons in to run the company out of business.

That is Barry’s job when he is there. Why do you think flies keep landing on his face?

One line in one amendment of the next kick-the-can "budget" bill will take care of that, and everybody within 20 miles of the club as well.

Under Obamacare, let's say you make golf clubs and accessories, employing three hundred. So instead you carve your company up into six different stand alone businesses in order to stay under the 50 magic number? One company for sales, one for sourcing, one for manufacturing, one for quality and testing, one for shipping, and one for financial services.

Will that work?

Read an article about it today, but can’t find it right now. The short answer is, “Yes.”

And don’t forget the cutting hours below 30 per week trick. The law of unintended consequences... or maybe intended... is in full play and strong with Obamacare. May God help us all.
