The Relative has received a bizillion texts and phone calls in the past two days, giving him the story of the latest financial crisis to hit the U.S. -- the largest Chevrolet dealership in the world is closing. And it so happens that the largest Chevrolet dealership in the world is located in his fair city of Columbus, Georgia.
His cell phone has been buzzing non-stop the past two days with co-workers and friends calling to give him the news about Bill Heard Chevrolet closing. Details are sketchy, but from what I've put together, the dealership called all of their employees together yesterday after they closed, and gave them their last paycheck. I cannot breathe when I begin to imagine how those people must have felt.
The Relavite is the chief lending officer at a credit union in Columbus, Georgia, and his people have been calling non-stop with the latest news about the dealership's closing. Combine that news with the stories we're starting to hear about Tennessee and North Carolina running out of gas, and I do believe we've got the workings of another State Of Emergency.
