It's always easy to detest the greedy little bean counter CEO who closes a plant.
While the employees, in some cases, will lose the only job they've ever known, he's telling the rest of the world that the Great American Chocolate Bar can and will be made more cheaply in Mexico.
And while Hershey — as much a part of Oakdale's fabric as its cowboy culture — leaves a huge void in the community, its public relations folks want you to know they'll be ramping up the Hershey Track & Field meet for the kids. Sweet.
Consequently, there is nothing Lenny or anyone else at Hershey can do to spin this as anything but corporate pocket-lining, stock-boosting, Wall Street-pandering greed.....he'll be getting richer and they'll lose their paychecks. He's the guy making the decisions and the millions, and with it comes any well-deserved animosity.
