‘Black Thursday’ fallout
The following quote was included in a news release distributed by Sears/Kmart, and it ran in a front-page Dayton Daily News story a couple of weeks ago about more stores starting “Black Friday” shopping on, well, Thanksgiving Day:
“We understand that many of our associates want to spend time with their families on the holiday, so Sears and Kmart will staff its stores with seasonal associates and those who have volunteered to work on Thanksgiving Day,” said Ron Boire, executive vice president and chief merchandising officer for Sears and Kmart.
Judging from some phone calls I received, some Kmart employees did not completely agree with their executive vice president’s definition of the word “volunteered.”
United Way appointment
Karen M.R. Townsend has been appointed senior vice president for resource development at United Way of the Greater Dayton Area. Townsend most recently served as director of faculty development at Central State University, and previously worked at Ohio State and Wright State universities. In her new role at United Way, she will direct resource-development strategies and oversee efforts to promote strong year-round partnerships with donors and will provide primary leadership for the local annual campaign, according to a United Way news release.
Eating well
In restaurant news, you should know that the second location of Taqueria Mixteca at 2190 Shiloh Springs Road in Trotwood is now open. The popular Taqueria Mixteca has operated its flagship restaurant at 1609 E. Third St. in Dayton for seven years.
Meanwhile, the owners of Roost Modern Italian, Dana Downs and Beth Hirschbach, celebrated the restaurant’s one-year anniversary by signing up for another gig: they’ll be operating the new Leo Bistro inside the Dayton Art Institute. The bistro will launch sometime in December; it will be open to the public and will focus on lunch service, serving food influenced by Mexican, French and Italian cuisines.
