While reading the Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2013 edition of the Salmon Arm Observer, I experienced both sadness and disgust.
I felt sadness while reading the obituary for Shane Gorner. His untimely and accidental death while working at Dinoflex, located here in Salmon Arm, is a tragedy that no family should have to go through; my thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.
I felt disgust, when turning the newspaper page and reading under the help wanted ads, this headline: “We have an immediate opening for a warehouse worker,” posted by Dinoflex. How callous and uncaring can Dinoflex be, when posting a job opening at the same time as we honour a young man who died while at work, for this same company.
Shame on you Dinoflex; a bit more due diligence on your part might have avoided this very embarrassing situation.
