Tillamook Cheese shipped from Utah: What?

The shocking news here in Oregon this week: Our beloved, homegrown Tillamook Cheese will soon be shipped from Salt Lake City, Utah! Do they, or anyone outside of Oregon for that matter, even know how to pronounce Tillamook? I can just hear it now: Tillmooook; like it has something to do with the sound of a cow! Yes, workers at our ice cream and squeaky cheese stop on the coast are now being laid off. How can sending “our” cheese to another state have anything to do with streamlining the process?

Well, I feel badly for all those laid off workers/fellow loyal lovers of Tillamook cheese and ice cream. Makes me want to send them all a greeting card! And, of course, SendOutCards has a category for that! When you know someone who gets laid off from work and you don’t know what to say, SEND THEM A CARD to express your most simple “I care” feelings.

Just go to the category: Expressions, then Sympathy, then Workplace. I like the “I believe in you” message of first card that comes up in that category but the simple "I am sorry" message of the second card is a great one to send also. For a category with some nice inspirational messages go to: Keeping in Touch, then Motivational, then Series, then Life Lessons

A road without obstacles probably doesn't lead anywhere. (inside message)

Saying SOMETHING is always better than saying nothing at all. That is what I have learned in the couple of tragedies I have experienced in my little lifetime. Just say you care. . .
