big layoffs at staples

another round of layoffs at staples this week. it is logical to think that sp will begin some butchering at essendant soon as well. then they can fully merge the 2 companies into one entity.

it seems we will continue to bend over backwards for mason. i was hoping they would pull some of their biz and give this sh*thole co a wake up call. they have mason and barely any other clients. wrong way to do business.

Now that we are changing name we may want to rename this board to Essendant. Not sure how many people we are planning to lay off, but we have 77 facilities, so go figure, it may be massive. Fun in Deerfield, what can I tell you...
