Complaint Review: KUHNS BROS. LOG HOMES INC. - MEBANE North Carolina

Difficult decisions never come easy. The individual "Robert" (not her real name) as all employees of Kuhns Bros. Log Homes, Inc., was treated fairly and honestly. Kuhns Bros. has earned a reputation within the log home industry and business community as an ethical and morally guided company. Employees of the company are highly regarded and referred to as part of the "family". So you can only imagine how difficult it is when someone in the family has to be asked to leave because their actions have discredited the name and reputation of the company, not to mention exposing the company to legal liability. "Robert" was with Kuhns Bros. for a relatively short period of time, who was promoted from the position she was originally hired (receptionist) to a sales representative position, providing a substantial income earning opportunity. "Robert" accepted the position, which included advanced payments (a draw) to "Robert" on expected future earnings. Unfortunately for Kuhns Bros., "Robert" left the company prior to earning the draws she was advanced, forcing the company to right-off the unpaid debt. "Robert" was fostered throughout her early sales career via extensive training and tutoring. Unfortunately, for Kuhns Bros. and "Robert", she and a fellow employee were asked to resign due to an incident that could have resulted in legal liability to the company. The incident was thoroughly checked out and verified by others who were present at the time. It is a very difficult decision when you have to consider asking a promising employee, who the company has spent a great deal time, effort and money training and supporting, to resign. But the decision becomes justified when it is the ethical and morally right thing to do. We wish "Robert" much success and happiness in whatever future endeavors she chooses to pursue.
