It's been said that you should always write about topics you know. I didn't think anyone would find a story on housecleaning, doing the laundry, or food shopping that appealing. But most of us need to work at some point of our lives. It's been my experience that employers sometimes make decisions that they think are best for the company's bottom line, but at the same time, they fail to consider how those decisions affect the rank-and-file. This story is about what can happen to both sides when major corporate decisions or changes are made.
Our story begins when Becky Milner finds a new job as an office manager with a local manufacturing group. She blends in rather quickly with the people she works for and with. Everything goes along rather smoothly for years until she begins to notice some strange situations occurring in the office. When the newly installed security cameras are disconnected one weekend, that fuels her suspicions even more. Then the industry's rumor mill suddenly starts filtering some possible answers her way. She doesn't like the implications of what she's hearing and feeling, but she most likely won't have any control over the outcome. She's been down this road before. It's dEjA vu all over again.
