Give back your iPods!
Last month the employees of the Arlington plant were announced that they will be receiving 30-gigabyte video iPods as a reward for all their effort they put for this company. This was a big surprise for everyone especially because they worth about $300. But a bigger surprise came last week when the company, after gaining a lot of publicity for their kindness, laid-off 35 employees and were asked to give back their 30-gigabyte video iPods.
The employees are saying that they were under the impression that the iPods were theirs to keep so some had sold them or given them as gifts and that nothing was ever said about ever having to give back the 30-gigabyte video iPods. Company spokeswoman LuAnn Jenkins said that the digital music player were not a gift and that she didn’t know whether the company ever intended for the workers to keep the iPods.
