Meijer's

Around 4,000 managers at Meijer stores were told that they will have to reapply for their jobs today.

The company says that they are looking at how they can realign roles and resources to better fit customer needs. They say that a vast majority of those effected will keep their jobs, but some positions could likely be cut.

The company will be meeting with managers throughout the next week to look at what changes will be made.

Leadership positions at all of Meijer's 189 stores could be effected. The stores are in five states.

Now do you want my take on the situation....... I predict in the near future (couple of years) we will no longer see Mejiers. I believe that Wal-Mart and Walgreens these type of stores are the wave of the future. Our economy stinks so bad in this nation that companies all over are trying every ditch effort to cut back and save where in the long and short of it they end up folding. And we only have ourselves to blame as our nation out sources almost all of our business to foreign countries because, we are cheap and no that other countries will do our work for about 1/8 of what we will do it for. We are giving our jobs away. I wish we would just bring all our work back home and stop out sourcing our Auto Industry, Merchandise, Food Products.....ect...ect. It makes me sick to see just about everything we own is made in China, Japan, Korea, Ta wain...ect...ect... I would just like to start seeing MADE IN THE USA. If we would bring our jobs back home and send people back to work then I think our economy would pick up. But, until we stop being greedy and money hungry and Lazy and wanting everything for NOTHING then things will never change. That is my 2 cents so take it for what it's worth.
