  • Door holding

    A few things. I am classifying this as a “rant” but it’s not quite a rant. Think of it as a rant-lite. So, first of all, check out this clip from our corporate intranet. So, when I first saw this last week, I was figuring the headline was going to be something like “Mason, OH…
