A guy I worked with had gone bankrupt and after I got to know him.He told me what happened. His family owned a trucking business, things got bad. He, his dad and brothers sat down and decided that they would not close til they found every employee a job. They had been loyal to them and they had to do the right thing. Well to do that it cost them, they had to take on a mountain of debt. I asked would he do it again, he said it was the right thing to do so he would do it everytime.

It was the right thing to do.
He is a fine man and there are very few like him.
You should be honored to know him as there are many that would have bailed chalking it up to a lesson he needed to learn.
