Another Missouri company announces layoffs.

[Missourian]

Last week we were greeted with news that two Missouri Tyson Food plants were permanently closing.

This week Briggs and Stratton announced layoff at their Popular Bluff facility.

Sounds like the economy is really booming, doesn't it.

"For the second time in as many weeks, a large U.S. company has delivered unwelcome news to production workers in Southeast Missouri.

Wauwatosa, Wisconsin-based Briggs & Stratton will layoff 202 plant employees in Poplar Bluff, Missouri, beginning Saturday, Oct. 14.

On Aug. 7, Tyson Foods announced it plans a permanent furlough Friday, Oct. 13, of nearly 700 workers at its poultry production facilities in Dexter, Missouri.

While there is a finality to Tyson's decision to close its Dexter operation, Briggs & Stratton's Poplar Bluff plant manager Mark Melloy told www.manufacturing.net the company hopes the economy will improve and workers can be recalled."

Can this, B&S, be attributed to CA's ban on small ICEs?

Fucktard-nomics. I don't trust the economy with something that flunked 3rd grade and molests children.

The article only cites the floundering economy as the cause for the layoffs.

Sounds like a red state issue.

No, what is the governor of Missouri doing to force these companies to close.

Nothing new since they told Noel they were closing five years ago. Someone will come along and reopen the plant just like the others have done in the area.

The economy is actually doing quite well.

Currently those numbers are 3.2% and 3.5%

Probably has nothing to do with how expensive lawn mowers have gotten. Hell you can't even find a decent push mower for less than about $600 around here.

We're doing great in Texas. Sounds like a you problem.

I hope you're right. I was thinking about you when I read the original story about the closure.

I think I tagged you in it.

Noel has plenty of recreational income in the warm months...but I worry about what will happen in the winter.

The Somalians and Islanders will have to find new jobs but there are other poultry kill plants in a twenty-mile radius. I worked for Tysons from 1990-1992 as an Electronics Tech in Rogers, Ar. but they sucked to work for. I do security at campsites at night on the weekend and get paid to sit and party.
