Ugh!
Permanent layoffs at the Big Yellow...all of 450 people, mostly supplemental employees but that's not all of it, there will be more layoffs for the permanent employees since there is NO orders for June and July...absolutely NO orders. CAT predict another 500 will be laid off in June and rolling layoffs will occur right now until the market for mining equipment stablizes, not this year but hopefully next year before they can recall some of the people back.
Writing on the wall is on for CAT but I know they survived the worst in 1980's and they will again. But all those poor 450 people, would have a hard time finding jobs in this town. Many of them wanted to leave the state and go elsewhere.
