Because of Sarah Lee's contributions to Brady/MMM, I haven't purchased their products in years. While I'm sorry to see people laid off (I can empathize; it recently happened to me), I rejoice that the company is in trouble.
Perhaps if they spent their money on employee salaries, instead of giving to groups that seek to undermine our civil rights, they would be more profitable.
Actually, I see a lot of money going to big time consulting firms in charge of consolidating business units and installing common systems.
