I'm not against the war but don't intend to defend my opinion as I need to conserve energy for arguing with my soon-to-be ex-husband. But as long as we're on the subject, I wanted to pass along the following information:
By law, employers of reservists are required to hold open their jobs when employees are called for active duty, but this is all that is required.
Reservists often suffer pay cuts and lose benefits
as a result of their absence.
Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salary and maintaining all benefits, including health insurance and bonus programs, for reservist employees called to active duty. If this makes you more inclined to shop at Sears, find a manager and tell them why you decided to
spend your hard-earned dollars at their store.
The company needs and deserves positive feedback
for this policy.
