General Discussion

I worked at Macy's in Visual/Display and I was going to call the local news since brand new leather belts were among tons of expensive items that were trashed into the dumpsters since the various manufacturers, like Calvin Klein, Bill Blass, etc would not let us even donate items to charities, thrift stores, and so on. They didn't want their products "cheapened".

When I became a teacher I lived a block away from the Ed Center and I saw brand new phonics books in the dumpster. I recognized the books since I had the same ones in my classroom at a different school. The local news said the books were "old and damaged" but they weren't, they were the district's new books purchased with our tax dollars. Each classroom had several hundred of them.
