I was off from work for a year and a half, and then, my employer cut off my workers' comp benefits. Being disabled, no one wanted to give me a job, so I started my own business.

There aren't too many companies that would allow me to work like this.

There are some people that want to work, but they just need a boss who understands that they may need to take a lot of breaks. I wanted my own business, because if I was an employee, I'd probably get fired.

I have every difficulty that any other entrepreneur has plus one extra. I have to hire extra help on projects that a regular person wouldn't necessarily need.

Sharon Wilson is one of the hardest workers in Ector County. It's a shame what has happened.

Our strong preference is to have our striking workers return to work.
