Your lower working bees are the cheapest employees. You kill your back bone then you entire operation will suffer.

The BACKBONE??? Are you on drugs? There are 310,000 Lowe's employees, and 2000 locations. Reducing by "thousands" means 1-3 employees per store... and maybe 1% of the total employed.

Further, the work being outsourced is JANITORIAL... and assembling wheelbarrows and grills after delivery... work that any 9 year old could do. It's placing a part over a bolt, and tightening a wingnut. You want to pay $13/hr plus benefits for that??? It's mopping and putting a wheel on a wheelbarrow... and yet you call this the BACKBONE of a massive national chain. Unreal.

After delivery to the store, that is.

Rewarding law breakers and firing Americans for money just does not justified in my view.

50 years ago, assembling was a good and fun job for high school kids.

“Are you on drugs?”

**********

That’s a pretty nasty and unnecessary remark my FRiend. Whatever you say after hurling that kind of insult is often ignored.
