Temple, Texas-based McLane Company, a wholesale supply chain services company that distributes products to convenience stores, discount retailers, wholesale clubs, drug stores, military bases, fast-food restaurants, and casual dining restaurants, has announced it's scaling back to a single work shift at its Danville, Illinois facility.
The reduction will impact up to 220 employees.
According to a company spokesperson, “McLane announced that we are making adjustments to staffing levels at our Danville facility based on current business needs. McLane has been a longstanding employer in the region and remains committed to our teammates, customers and the community. While this was a difficult decision, our focus remains on supporting our teammates and delivering value to our customers.”
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?
