I hate to do stuff like this, but I think this is important
Assume you have all seen the reports about how Sears is treating its
reservist employees who are called up? By law, they are required to hold
their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people take a
big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called up...
Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining
all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called
up reservist employees for up to two years. I submit that Sears is an
exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for its contribution.
Suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure to find a manager to tell them
why we are there so the company gets the positive reinforcement it well
deserves.
Pass it on.
So I decided to check it out before I sent it forward. I sent the
following e-mail to the Sears Customer Service Department:
I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is true. If it is,
the Internet may have just become one very good source of advertisement for
your store. I know I would go out of my way to buy products from Sears instead
of another store for a like item even if it was cheaper at the other store.
Here is their answer to my e-mail......................
Dear Customer:
Thank you for contacting Sears.
The information is factual. We appreciate your positive feedback. Sears
regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young
men and women can make. We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden they
bear at this time.

Please pass this on to all your friends, Sears needs to be recognized for
this outstanding contribution and we need to show them as Americans, we
do appreciate what they are doing for our military.
