I like my Township so far and have a few friends there. Dalton, 1/4 mile from me. Don't believe everything you read on social media, jeesh

A little bit of e-mail activity among the MSFC board this morning. One of our BOD has been involved since the beginning and he has been gathering information about Dalton Township. He is exposing the lies, misdeeds, corruption and illegal activity of the township officials. The township appears to be getting worried and they are considering dropping their lawsuit. We can only hope.

I think the farm should counter sue the township for hardship and suffering

Always hard to know the 'whole' story.

Yep. Easy to judge though from afar. The system is far from perfect. Innocent until proven guilty is my motto. I h=just hate seeing some friends thrown uner the wheels for doing their most unpopular job. I'd like to see some people who jump on the bandwagon try and fill their shoes. Maybe run for office?

I made the mistake of reading some of the comments on Mlive. Extreme knee-jerk responses on both sides, the kind of rude, selfish, uneducated muck you would expect from the social media machine. Yuck.

Very true.
I usually try to consider both sides but I'm rather jaded on this one. It is too similar to what happened to me in GC.

It didn't do a damn thing. I went to work yesterday at 3:00. I checked the chick pen and there was only one tank with chicks. But guess what? No water. There was a half-full fount in the empty tank so I swapped them out. As I walked back to the front, the receiver/manager had words for me. The polite version was that I'm out of my assigned area.
I closed last night so I checked the birds again. There is one tank with 9 birds. They got fresh water and a full feeder. The other 5 tanks were empty of birds but not stinking litter. A tank in the back warehouse has 3 birds, I don't know why. Sick or injured or dying?

Thanks for contacting TSC but it didn't seem to change anything.

You would think that they would be smart enough to know that chicks are perishable stock and they need proper care, food, and water.

Media in general, lol. I'd rather clean goat pens than listen/read the "crap" they push.

Got two friends coming with us. Not sure what they'll bring for food to pass. So there's that. Oh, and I did invite Farmerboy, and Kat.

Although honestly John, it wasn't the media that was making these statements, it was people reacting to the article, obviously a lot of them were just blabbing without really understanding the issue at all.
