Workers Cried At Hearing Of Bonus
Tears flowed at a Maine shoe factory when the workers heard about this year's
Christmas bonus. "They called us all together and said we would each get
$1,000," Lawrence Wyman said. "Everyone started clapping and then
they said it would be $1,000 for each year worked." That's when the tears
began flowing. At a time when manufacturing jobs are being lost to automation
or sent overseas, SAS Shoemakers gave a bonus to its workers totaling an
estimated $200,000, Britain's Sky News reported. Plant workers, Lawrence, and
his wife, Charline, each received checks for $19,000 for working at the plant
19 years.
