    I heard that alright, but I thought it was the one on the Manorhamilton Road?

    they dropped 18 people from their cavan plant in cootehill.

    My brother works there and told me it was because they are only allowed a certain number of people working at each line in a shift but they managers had hired extra people to create rolling breaks and allow the line to keep going throughout the breaks.

    Apparently they still weren't able to sustain it and then hierarchy made the decision to let them go, although the workers knew it was coming they only expected 9 to be let go, not 18.

    He wasn't one of them though so I'm happy enough.
