Holidays Bad for Some at Whirlpool

Whirlpool has announced it is laying off 150 workers from the LaVergne Heil Quaker Boulevard plant. With about 670 employees, this represents a layoff of 22% of its employees.

According to the Daily News Journal, the layoffs are expected in December. My sympathy to the workers losing their jobs during the holidays.
