IP TO CLOSE COURTLAND AL PAPER MILL

http://www.therepublic.com/view/story/f1fcf8af64bf4484b508f5a5213d97ed/AL--Alabama-Paper-Mill-Closing

It's going to be a terrible adjustment what with my place of employment closing the first of the year. Been here for 34 years and all at once it's "Been nice to know you but we're locking the doors".

Guess I'll have to find a new reason to get up in the morning

Sorry to hear it. This is the way they shut down the Great Works Mill in Old Town, Maine, too. The region never did recover from that economic blow. Lost my job at the time because of it, too. We supplied electronics to the mill for maintenance.

This will make our county the poorest in the state of Alabama
