Tampa, Florida-based Anchor Glass, a manufacturer of premium stock and custom glass packaging, has announced the immediate closure of its Warner Robins, Georgia, facility.
The closure will impact 168 employees.
According to a company spokesperson, "After extensive review, we concluded that Warner Robins does not have the long-term demand needed to remain a competitive and sustainable operating location for Anchor. This closing is expected to be permanent."
Change is constant, and it's coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life, nor promises of a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, at any time, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
