Complaint not valid

Well, it seems there is at least one unhappy person in our community, someone who leads such a melancholy life that he/she can only attain satisfaction by spreading his/her misery to others, including our local businesses. This person sought to attack my employer by filing an anonymous (of course) complaint with the fire chief. This person hides behind the cloak of anonymity just as others have done recently through complaints on social media. Such brave people.

The complaint was that my employer was creating the business’s main product using an open wood fire. Right. Let’s burn down more of our downtown, as some businesses were destroyed in a 1985 fire. This person probably remembers that event as one focal point in his/her melancholy life. Here is the fact: we use electricity to create our product. My employer specifically chose electricity over natural gas because of the concern about flames, open or not.

I feel sorry for this person with his/her miserable complaint which is not supported by fact. Maybe if this person actually patronized our downtown businesses, including my place of employment, then maybe he/she just might find the “one thing” to make him/her happy. If he/she doesn’t recognize the reference to the “one thing,” I suggest renting the 1991 movie “City Slickers” and watch it in its entirety. Then come downtown and enjoy our local businesses. Curly would be proud of you.
