IT'S MUCH WORSE THAN YOU THINK (THE PARTY IS OVER) - BIG LOTS CLOSING ALL STORES

[@trainshot17]

My corporate department’s sales goal was 50 million. We excelled and sold 320 million. We worked nights and some weekends. Our reward is layoff talks, no raises and no bonuses. This is a huge problem. No way to get ahead working for corporations.

I fled corporate 30 years ago. Then I learned what good and BAD bosses were thru my small biz journey. 20 years ago I said I could just figure it out on my own. Have used my hard earned skills to provide for ever since. Haven't paid a dime of income tax ever since. Now I own my own home with zero mortgage. All vehicles were bought outright. I stay backlogged for work at least 2-3 months ahead and have been so for at least the last 6 or 7 years. I write my own hours and have been able to watch my kids grow up and be there when needed. If I can do it, anyone can
