True. 124 year old company closing this week. Company was sold a few times in the last several years and started losing money. Unions rejected wage and benefit concessions 3 times in 2009. Company regained profitability anyhow, but management is closing shop anyway. $5 million per week payroll and 4,000 jobs gone.
