coal market is turning around

Upper Management doesn't care about the abuses hourly help puts up with by middle management!
Advice to Management
Get out of St. Louis! You have people that work for peabody that are being severely miss treated! And upper management either turns a blind eye to it is okaying it flat out docent care about it or all the above! I am going to say all the above!
