I will remember this when I need to rent a car.

Great! Too bad more business owners don’t cherish the reservists.

Some free and well deserved advertising.

Thank you for posting this. There aren’t enough stories highlight the GOOD employers. I’ll remember them the next time I need a rental!

Dollar Thrifty also provided Milam with two raises and a slice of company profits that he’d missed while he was serving in Iraq.

This is, indeed, impressive. I can only respect this.

Dollar Thrifty, you have my next vehicle rental.

We always rent from Dollar for our road trips. This is good to know and next time we rent, this story will be mentioned.

The list of corporate execs is here, but no where on their site do they offer a way to communicate with them.

Thanks to you both, I will remember them for this.

This is nothing but public relations BS. Look at the big picture. Dollar/Thrifty recently let several hundred people go, outsourcing many of those jobs to India and the Philipines.

Now they accept an award on how well they treat the reservists. Although this part of the story is true, they don’t give a damn about the reservists or Blake Milam. If it becomes financially expedient, his job could be outsourced as well.

What are our troops fighting for, when they come home and all the jobs belong to India, the Philipines, or illegal immigrants?

Don’t look at a company just by the awards it may receive. Take a look at how they treat the average employee.
