Snopes
says this is true.
Holiday
shopping this year?
I
know I needed this reminder, since Sears isn't always my first choice. It's
amazing when you think of how long the war has lasted and Sears hasn't
withdrawn from their commitment. Could we each buy at
least one thing at Sears this
year?
How
does Sears treat its employees who are serving in our military?
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 on active duty.
Sears
is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all
benefits,including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all employees
who are serving.
I
submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized
for its contribution. I suggest we all shop at Sears at least once this
year. Be sure to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the company
gets the positive reinforcement & feedback it well
deserves.
I
decided to check this before I sent it forward. So 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
company. 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's cheaper at that
store.
This
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 men and women can make. This is
the "least" we can do for them. We are happy to do our part to lessen
the burden they bear at this time.

Thorn Sears Customer Care
Please
pass this on. 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!!!

employees?
