Remington plant aam to close within 1 year. I'm in shock

I’ve barely slept I’m so anxious. Good luck to all. And hope we all receive good news. To those of us who don’t, I hope you have been making plans to get out regardless. Brace yourselves: here come the “I got mine” posts.

There is about 400 people working here. About 25% will be laid off and you can find WARN notices filed with the state as it exceeds the layoff tresholds. It's also all over the news - so please do not tell me it's not happening and this is the... read more
