She worked with 2 others, Rudy &amp; Curt and she always won the insult competitions the department had each week. Her family motto was, &#8220;The best defence is a good offense&#8221; and she strived to live up to that motto. Imagine her surprise when they were all told that the company was closing shop locally and farming it&#8217;s business overseas&#8230;globalization it was called.
