    I remember seeing the original story and thinking that this is the way people should be. This is how businesses should run. I thought it was amazing then. I am blown away but at the same time not surprised that his employees did this. The company and the people as a whole are a shining example of what good can happen when you give. You should give freely. However, the more positivity you spread, the more you are surrounded by it.
    Thanks for sharing these stories. I usually need to wipe my tears after most of these segments.

    I worked for a fortune 100. I was told I could only give my employees a 1% raise…we didn’t have any money. 3 months later the CEO took a $30,000,000.00 bonus. I quit a week later and became a consultant! I love this CEO!

    This guy is putting all these corporations to shame. This county is built on people who call themselves Christians, but when push comes to shove they really are only about themselves. This man is teaching people how things are suppose to be. Thank you for continuing to share this story. All the business analysts in colleges need to keep track of the progress of this company. I can see them growing even bigger because more small businesses will hear these stories and want to be a part of what they are doing. Could you imagine what the world would look like if every company was doing this?

      RIGHT?! I often find conservatives talking about ‘trickle down economics’. THIS IS WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. THIS is trickle down economics! When you pay your employees well, they can then recirculate that money back into the economy by supporting other businesses, buying homes, and moving society forward by starting families. Not fucking Wall Street, insider trading, and making profit by cheating out as much as possible.

    The best company I worked for was a family owned pharmaceutical wholesaler. The CEO actually cared about its workers and made sure to be involved in their daily lives. When there were challenges, workers stepped up to help.
    After the company got bought out by a major company, all that loyalty vanished. Employees quickly learned they were just a number.

    Small businesses provide 70% of the new jobs every year. Government and big business provide the rest. So based on that simple fact, why is the Government not offering tax incentives and better legislation to make small businesses prolific. It's pretty simple. Follow the money. Small businesses cannot afford to hand millions to bolster politicians war chests.
    Lee Iaccoca was one of the first to announce how much the employees of Chrysler stepped up and helped to keep them in business. His premise was if management was willing to take a cut in wages and benefits then employees will follow suit. It all hinges on management taking the first step. Iacocca took a million dollar a year cut.
