Management and labor should work together on improving the business.
In the beginning, business was simpler, according to my dad, Irving. He and my Uncle Morty started working out of my grandfather's gas station. Dad said he and Uncle Morty were responsible for everything. And they were good at what they did. Soon people began to notice and the business grew. A crossroads was reached when they couldn't keep up with all the work and they had to add employees.
In the early days of the company, the late 1930s to the mid-1940s, Dad had told me they had the upper hand due to the country's high unemployment from the Depression. This resulted in management abuses.
