Remember the "it's better to be lucky than smart bankruptcy avoidance rule"?
Yeah, me neither.
But I've written before about places that were unlucky enough to have a business in a shopping center where the street was being repaired.
For two years.
Not quite as common is the situation that arises when a manufacturing facility is raided based on an interpretation of a law in India.
And the implicit advice that Gibson Guitars was given was simple: use Indian Workers rather than U.S. Workers.
That makes me sad. Seems to me that if there was any question at all on any matter, all government agencies should ask themselves, "will this action take away jobs from U.S. Citizens?"
Now, Gibson Guitar has discussed its position on the raid, and understandably, Gibson is a little cranky about being put out of business, even if it's only temporary.
And the U.S. Workers who had been getting paychecks from Gibson? They're a little cranky, too.
Most Americans would prefer jobs to unemployment.
But here's the Gibson Guitar take on the issue; enjoy reading!
