Graybar Electric review: Lousy treatment of employee 1

Graybar is an employee owned company which has been around a long time, was incorporated in 1925. Some branches of this company seem to think it's still 1925. The branch in Canton, Ohio is more backwards than The Beverly Hillbillies. They seem to think that the way to manage the branch is to remove or demote employees who are hard working and whose values and ideas don't serve the best interest of the person in charge there. This manager's title is "Sales Manager" yet he is in charge of every aspect of the entire branch and he has to micromanage everything. He also likes to insult his employees, especially the ones who could probably do his job blindfolded. He recently "laid off" an employee who had experience in sales and had progressive ideas on how the sales deptartment should go out and prospect new accounts (this does NOT happen there) He was told that the reason for his lay off was because his job position was eliminated. The position was filled by another employee who's position was actually eliminated, but because he was favored by the branch manager he was given the other employees job and the latter was basically let go unjustly. Another employee who was a driver was trained in all of the aspects of the warehouse and was then demoted to "material handler" without even being told and runs the warehouse himself with little or no help from anyone else. The employee at the counter has been there for thirty plus years, has reached retirement age, barely does his job, chronically returns late from lunch, is gone half of the time (no kidding, has been taking every Monday and Friday off for the last two months) is constantly making sexual remarks ( customers have indicated their displeasure at this ) but is not told to retire, is not touched by the manager for any of this because he is in "retirement mode". I would like to know what the manager would think of one of the employees who may end up being in "Sexual Harassment lawsuit mode". I mean, some of the remarks this guy makes sounds like he came crawling out of a hole somewhere. I would really like to know what year this manager thinks it is. He has no people skills whatsoever and yet he "manages" every aspect of this branch. He needs to go back where he came from (K-Mart) and what Bozo put him in charge anyway? I wouldn't recommend employment at that branch of the company to my worst enemy.
