A Positive Note
With the constant announcements of layoffs and general negativity that we hear day to day, including the 20,000 jobs gone from Caterpillar yesterday, it’s nice to talk to a member who is bucking that trend. “We hope to double in size in the next five years,” says one MHEDA distributor, planning to go from 25 employees to 50 and add 3-5 facilities. It’s an attitude like that that I referred to in my post from a few days ago. Taking a positive attitude and looking to get through the downturn and come out positive on the other side. It’s only one small victory, but I hope many more small businesses, and especially MHEDA members, follow suit.
