Comments

Articulate on topics in abstract. Has an important statement on how Scott mismanaged S.D. Warren's best products and caused the company to lose market share through a self-inflicted wound; this is cited in Michael Hillard's published work on S.D. Warren. Also describes loss of income and status after laid off; was laid off only a couple of years after joining management; would not have lost job so quickly if he had remained union.
