With your "pack it up and go" attitude, I don't expect you to see the difference. I'm sure our difference in perception has to do with the way I was raised, and where you work, but I believe that when a family has had a relationship with a company for 54 years,(some more, many less), the decent thing to do is to give them more than 3 months notice that they have to get out (especially when you require them to give you 6 months notice). I haven't argued that Russell Lands doesn't have a right to do what they're doing, they most certainly do, but I will admit that I perceive the manner in which they have chosen to exercise their right is reflective of the manner in which they conduct most of their business, especially in the last 10 years. "Its ours, we're going broke, get out now so we can sell it off." That's how it appears to me. Obviously, you have a different agend....I mean...interpretation. It just strikes me as very disrespectful of those who supported the company since before it even existed (several of my friends had 99 year leases, through the Mill), but I place a fairly high value on respect and loyalty. Obviously, you do not. Nor does Russell Lands, in my experience. I know others don't as well. Its a cruel, cruel world, with rights to possession, control, and exclusion. Can't beat them, but I don't have to join them.

"Pack it up and go, granny!"

Make that the first line on your resume and I'm sure there's a VP job just waiting to be created for you with Russell Lands. Or the IRS. Maybe Homeland Security.
