Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I know...I know. You are surprised to see the name of such "trustworthy" people written up like this. But I thank God for what is still left of freedom of speech, so that I can remind you that not all that glitters is gold.

I worked in the front office for a couple of years, where I was one in a long line of those who had to leave because the place was so poorly run. (The line even includes a couple of lawyers, I believe.) Every day at least one of the owners would walk past egregious, undeniable abuse towards the staff by the managers- AND THEY WOULDN'T DO A d**n THING ABOUT IT!

This is silly when you CONSIDER THAT THEY GIVE AWAY LOADS OF MONEY IN THE NAME OF CHARITY. So I can only assume the charity is done for a tax write off, and to impress those who are already of their special ilk.

Why else let the Mayor slap you on the back, break open the bubbly, knowing that some poor working slob has to suffer right under your nose? Lets face it- dirt does not a millionaire make. But being in good with the politicians, and finding legal loopholes that allow you to steal the property of any business that you can make easy prey...does. And hey, if the people who really know where the skeletons are buried get paid handsomely and are happy to manage/co-own your business for 'ya, why not? I was able to get a good letter of reference from them, which now seems to not even be worth the paper it was written on.

I left for another position, but ran into a very peculiar situation which really was not my fault. I ended up needing to collect unemployment. Unfortunately, the system dictates that the collection effort go back nearly two years- which meant that it fell back on those very charitable (TeHe) people.

Now it turns out that one of the other former employees had put them through the ringer with the Office of Unemployment, so in fear they viciously drug my name through the mud- the whole while being recorded by a claims examiner who was staring right at a copy of the letter of recommendation I was given.

I can only assume that they were really spooked about having Unemployment question them. Hmmm... So now every time I try to seek better employment and they are contacted by POTENTIAL EMPLOYERS WHO ARE LOOKING RIGHT AT THE LETTER OF REFERENCE, I never hear about that job again. I know that it is because I am being slandered, and I can prove it.

It's hard to understand how those who have so much could be so base to those who do not, the whole while parading as angels of charitable mercy to the patrons of "Society".

Mankind has a bias which favors employers, and I guess that's just the way it is. Whatever. BUT TO ALL YOU BUSINESS PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE TRYING TO GET IN GOOD WITH THEM AND HOPING IT MIGHT DO SOMETHING TO HELP YOU--WATCH OUT! I HAVE SEEN CHECKS GET MISPLACED, ACCOUNTS AND OTHER BUSINESS OWNERS "BURIED". DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO- BUT TAKE THIS ADVISE FOR THE EXTREME AMOUNT THAT IT IS WORTH, AND DON'T SAY THAT NO ONE EVER WARNED YOU.

It really is sad, because I think that the founders of the company really WERE decent folk, and would probably roll over in the grave if they knew what went on there today. I'll bet that all of those trust funds would suddenly disappear if they could know just how untrustworthy that group of people has become. That is why I close by saying goodby to that "pack of goddamn buzzards".

As someone once said: where the dead body is, there will the vultures be gathered.

Now this sounds like a really good case, doesn't it? Not any loose ends...If there was no counter argument, many would simply buy it. But what if we say that although the Gudelsky's are well meaning, they really have no idea about the true plight of the poor. Therefore, they allow/overlook things not out of meanspiritedness, but simply out of ignorance? Contrary to what you seem to believe, most workers are not chomping at the bit to sue you. They would rather have a position in a really good working environment where they can maximize their skills and grow. That is actually true- otherwise you would see a lot MORE suits occuring. THE GREATEST GIFT THAT YOU CAN GIVE THE POOR IS THE CHANCE TO EARN A DECENT LIVING IN A PEACEFUL AND PRODUCTIVE ENVIRONMENT. That is something that only the owners can do, because everyone else is going to follow your position. Gifts of any amount of charity will fly in the face of a business owner who will not allow the poor man a real chance to put food on the table. If you cmbine that with taking away unemployment benefits because you need to tell a story to cover the fact that you didn't do your job, and then you have to give a bad reference to keep it all tidy...Well, I'm sorry to tell you this but you have probably put quite a few people out on the street and in the situation of being destitute. Honestly, you owe those people an apology. Alright, so I brought your case full circle. Now please let me make a case for myself. And please...this time really listen- don't condemn me and conclude that I am a monster before you even hear me out. We all know that I have had severe struggles in the employment arena. People think that I just like to cause trouble, push my way around, quit a job and then see what I can get from unemployment. NOTHING COULD BE FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH. (Especially since if I was that great of a con, wouldn't I choose a better venue than unemployment?) What if you came into the world with a mind-set that said,"You will do everything you can to help your company, and with an integrity that is of a generation that has long since past." And everywhere you went you worked your fingers to the bone trying to do just that! But unfortunately...you are not the owner and don't have the authority to do what you are trying so hard to do. In fact, although your mind and actions are that of an owner, you are now just a worker bee. So very soon, everyone around you is in pissed off and thinks you are a real problem. You don't want to lose yet another position...and can't even understand why you always seem to screw things up. So you hang in until the bitter end- bypassing any chance to even give the two week notice because you keep praying that this time, somehow things will work out! THAT IS MY STORY. And I can not begin to tell you how many times I have cried myself to sleep over it or what it's like to search for the answer by going to counselors, schools, palm readers- You name it. In desperation I tried them all. It wasn't until I was at your company that I finally figured out what my problem was, and then only because God was merciful enough to reveal it to me. There are some things I said in the case argument that I would like to clarify. When I called you a "pack of goddamn buzzards", I really mean it in the slap on the back and grab the fishing pole sort of way. When I say that where the dead body is, there will the vultures be gathered- I mean that the last time I checked your company seemed to be in some trouble, as was evident by the amount of vultures that were in it. Although I have been angry with you, I DO NOT HATE YOU OR WISH YOU ANY HARM. I REALLY DON'T. I only want productive learning and peace for you. The last time I tried to reach out to you, I know that there was a lot of commotion. And then sure enough I was punished by being framed up as a thief. That's just what I know about. I suspect there was a lot more that went on that I don't know about. I am afraid of what will happen this time. Please understand that we all want to believe that we know what life is all about and what goes on in the universe, when in fact we know very little. There are so many things we do not understand. I am afraid of what will happen- but God told me that He was going to give me redemption, and so I believe Him. Thanks for listening.

But what if we say that although the Gudelsky's are well meaning, they really have no idea about the plight of the poor. Therefore, they allow/ overlook things not out of mean-ness, but simply out of ignorance? Contrary to what you seem to think, most workers are not chomping at the bit to sue you.

THE GREATEST GIFT THAT YOU CAN GIVE TO THE POOR IS THE CHANCE TO EARN A GOOD LIVING IN A PEACEFUL AND PRODUCTIVE ENVIRONMENT. That is something that only the owners can do, because everyone else is going to follow your postion. Gifts of any amount of charity will fly in the face of a business owner who will not allow the poor a real chance to put food on the table. if you combine that with the taking away of unemployment benefits because you must tell a story to cover the fact that you did not do your job, and then you have to give a bad reference to keep it all tidy...Well, I'm sorry to tell you this but you have probably put a few people out on the street and in the position of being destitute. Honestly, you owe those people an apology. Alright, so I made a case for you. Now please allow me to make a case for myself. And please...really listen- don't condemn me as a monster before you even hear me out. We all know that I have had severe struggles in the employment arena. People think that I just like to cause trouble, push my way around, quit a job and then try to get what I can from unemplyment. NOTHING COULD BE FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH. (Espectially when you consider that if I was that great of a con, wouldn't I choose a better venue than unemployment?)

There are some things in the case argument above that I would like to clarify. When I say "pack of goddamn buzzards", I mostly mean it in the slap you on the back, where is the fishing pole sort of way. When I say that where the dead body is there will the vultures be gathered- I mean that the last time I chacked your company seemed to be in trouble, as was evident by the number of vultures in it. Although I have been angry with you, I DO NOT HATE YOU OR WISH YOU ANY HARM. I REALLY DO NOT. I have had enough of hatred and condemnation. Productive learning and peace are what I prefer, and wish for you. The last time I tried to reach out to you, I know that there was a lot of commotion. And then sure enough I was punished by being framed as a theif. I am afraid of what will happen this time. Please understand that people like to believe that they know and understand the universe, but can you concede that there are many things which we are not able to explain? I'm afraid of what will happen this time- but God told me that He was going to give me redemption. So I believe Him. Thanks for listening.
