CBS will be closed for the 4th & 5th of July

Circuit Breaker Sales will closed July 4 & 5th in observance of the Independence Day Holiday. (Emergency services always available, just call)

But all employees were given a challenge from the President, Bill Schofield

All CBS employees please be advised that we will be closed for the 4th and 5th of July to celebrate the Independence Day Holiday.  BUT… you all have homework.. please take 10-20 minutes during this long holiday weekend and read the Declaration of Independence.  I personally read it a week a so ago for the first time in a very long time from a challenge sent out by Hillsdale College.  And honestly I had forgotten exactly what it said (beyond the opening lines) and why it so was important.  As we think about all the recent news stories from war in the middle east to NSA snooping to Obamacare, we should all remember the proper roles of government and family.  Read the list of grievances these folks had against the government/king and think how brave they were to Declare themselves free and try to change this stuff.  Seems to me we have exactly the same challenges these 200+ years later. 

All change starts with one person and while many of you know my many theories on stuff, my bottom line is human optimism.  We made this mess so we can certainly clean it up.  But only with the truth and a remembrance for our history.
