Apparently the whole line is that Wisconsin is "open for businesses to leave and take their jobs with them":
IPacesetters LLC has told government officials it may close its call center in Eau Claire, a move that would throw 154 people out of work.Just when you think it can't get any worse, Walker keeps finding a way to make it just that.
The New Jersey firm - which also has operations in Whitewater, Madison and Monroe - said the closing, if it occurs, would come no earlier than Aug. 30. The Eau Claire call center has union representation, but iPacesetters' notice to officials didn't name the union, and a company executive couldn't be reached for comment late Thursday.
Wisconsin, you chose poorly. Twice.

This is interesting, is Charter Communications one of their clients?
ReplyDeleteIs this company like Qwest, which has been shutting and consolidating their call centers nationally?
(the union for Qwest has helped people affected a ton, by the way. In case you're looking for some other examples.....)
News Flash to those without a clue. The closing is due to the past 4 dismal economic years of ObamaReign Policies. ALL businesses are consolidating and tightening their belts, same as every individual taxpayer in the country has been doing since socialist policies are failing as usual. Socialism is a failed govt entity. Always has been; always will be!!!
ReplyDeleteTell me one socialiast policy that President obama has enacted!
Delete"Open for Business" was democrat from WV's past Governors mantra. It didn't work well for WV either even when the democrats used it. Businesses left and the people left too. No politician on either side of the political aisle is intelligent enough to see 'failure' in their policies, especially the current President with all his 4 yrs of failure.
ReplyDeleteThat doesn't explain why WI is the only state to suffer significant job loss. That's all on Walker.
