Agrees with Roger position on hiring locally Comments re article 48903 Roger comments on school building Lois Cunningham writes: I totally agree with Roger on hiring locally for the school project, but I am going to go one step further, as I think that all businesses here and around Columbia should try to hire local workers whenever possible. I saw a clip on CNN last week about Amazon warehouse in Campbellsville, and the special "perks" they give "migrant" workers they bring in to help during peak season. They provide free camping spaces, and utilities for the workers who come in their motor homes to work and then move on. They interviewed some of the workers and they come from Alabama, South Dakota, Mississippi, etc. etc. i am not complaining about Amazon hiring; I am wondering why they have to go across the country to do it, when there are lots of willing workers in Adair, Russell , and Taylor Counties and, by the way, save some of the Amazon money as local labor would not have to have camping spaces and utilities. Just wondering ... - Lois CunninghamThanks, Lois Cunningham. I think Amazon.com did an intensive search in the local area but did not find enough available personnel from the local labor pool. Workplace readiness is often a big issue when hiring. -CM This story was posted on 2011-12-17 13:05:25
