And we did. We were having trouble fitting all the extra work into 3 shifts. At the time of our closure we were actually adding clients and had a big one or two on the hook ready to reel them in. Despite the recession we seemed to be finding work. I suspect our closure was less about our own finances and more about those of our big sis to the north, Grand Rapids. G.R was supposed to be the flagship of the state, but their revunue wasn't real good. I think we were fed to them to try and buy more time for G.R. to figure something out and the recession to smooth over.<br />Like I said I know this doesn't relate to Flint but my hunch is that there were similar politics happening over there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086537183354417004.post-81152905819404414842011-12-07T15:25:17.238-05:002011-12-07T15:25:17.238-05:00Yes, Anonymous 18:07, it was the recession.Yes, Anonymous 18:07, it was the recession.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086537183354417004.post-74514383016340660102011-12-06T18:07:19.664-05:002011-12-06T18:07:19.664-05:00Check this put Jim:
