Sears - Christmas shopping this year

I know I needed this reminder, since Sears isn't always my first choice. It's amazing

when you think of how long the war has lasted and Sears hasn't withdrawn from their

commitment. Could we each buy at least one thing at Sears this year?

How does Sears treat its employees who are called up for military duty? By law, they

are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people

take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called up for active duty.

Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits,

including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees

for up to two years.

I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for its

contribution. I suggest we all shop at S ears at least once, and be sure to find a

manager to tell them why we are there so the company gets the positive reinforcement

& feedback it well deserves.

Please pass this information on.



I decided to check this before I sent it forward. So I sent the following e-mail to the

Sears Customer Service Department:



I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is true. If it is, the internet may have

just become one very good source of advertisement for your company. I know I would

go out of my way to buy products from Sears instead of another store for a like item,

even if it's cheaper at that store.



This is their answer to my e-mail:



Dear Customer:

Thank you for contacting Sears. The information is factual. We appreciate your positive

feedback.

Sears regards service to our country as one of the greatest sacrifices our young men

and women can make. We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden they bear at

this time.

Its actually ILLEGAL to copy and paste copy righted material. Most forums I belong to force members to only copy and paste a snippet of an article and then link to its original source in order to avoid legal problems.
 
Hmm strange. I've never had any copy/paste problems.

is this snopes you can't copy from?
they run a javascript to disable that. if you go into your settings and disable javascript you can then do all the clicky things they don't want you to.
