With the help of his friends and family, Mr. Thompson escaped from prison and moved to Detroit, MI. Mr. Thompson changed his name to Mr. Charles R. Thompson, which is not his born name. For 8 years Mr. Thompson worked hard at the local automobile plant and gradually saved his money to start his own business (the hockey stick business you recently worked on). His business quickly became a pilar of the community. Mr. Thompson gained a reputation as a fair employer, who gave everyone a fair and equal chance at a good paying job. Mr. Thompson also had a profit- sharing program where all profits were split between the employees and local charities.
