Perverted Management

Sperry Canada self destructed in 2014 and 2015 wasn't a year to try and recover. Half of the jobs lost weren't related to the market conditions, half were customers fed up with Sperry and took their business elsewhere.

Another round expected today for the weekend crew. Got word calling for more police and more security on stand by. If Halliburton workers are getting cut, then they need to cut security and their cleaning staff too. Anybody else agree on this shit?
