Unilever, I love Unilever. My last (paid) job was with Unilever. I miss that place. They are half a soap making place in Port Sunlight near Liverpool that joined up with some outfit in Holland. And had factories all over the world. What kind of did them in was buying Best Foods in America then trying to reduce debt because of their f'up.
I liked it because they would send me to Sydney once a month for an important
meeting, so I'd go out to Bondi and get some waves and good times with the company paying the airfare. Then they would put me up in a nice hotel and have me work in Auckland for a week.
The factory in Wellington had about 650 or 700 people and I was the one person who knew everyone's name LOL It was like being back at high school. I loved it.
