    The shitty news just keeps coming. Anyone from sports? Names?

    I only know a couple guys there, but they're absolute class acts.
     
  5. Morris is a great company that values its employees and pays generously. I wish all of us could work at a company as great as Morris.

    Charles the elder and Billy are brothers. That makes Little Charles, or Charles Hill as he is known, Billy's nephew.
    And with the Augusta cuts, the Jacksonville layoffs and the folks shown the door in Savannah .... no Morris bash here, just a sad realization that times are bad for lots of folks and there is no indication they will get better anytime soon.

    Nobody in sports that I know of. And I would never release names onto this thread like that even though the reality is that I would've preferred one of the cuts to be in that department, yeah it might sound shitty, but when you severely detest someone it makes it kind of hard to root for that person. And that's all I'm saying about that one.

    When the axe fell in Jacksonville, you knew everyone else would soon be hit. I too have seen the Billy Bob act up close and personal. The guy has a sensitivity chip missing.

    This was the second cut in less than a year. Third if you count Morris Corporate which is in Augusta as well.

    I've kept up with the count Tom. Like I said, I seen the Billy Bob act before up close and very personal. I can almost guarantee something knee jerking will happen before Christmas and definitely before Dec. 31. It's the Billy Bob way. Bend over. It's coming right atcha!!!

    Exactly why I vacated the Morris Hotel before I got my eviction notice.
