US Products Move To Cost 40 Jobs

Item: Local plant moving operations to Mexico: 40 people will lose jobs on parent company's decision/Alecia Warren, Press

More Info: "Obviously I'm saddened because we've got such a great group of folks in our plant that have dedicated many years to U.S. Products," (General Manager Doug) Hauff said, adding that the company hasn't pegged if any locals will be offered jobs in Mexico. "My personal goal -- and one I will work very hard to establish -- is getting new jobs for those who want help."

New Question (offered by Randy Stapilus/Ridenbaugh Press): Will they still call them U.S. Products? And if so, will they try to do it with a straight face?
