Anyone that was working as an RF store full filling online orders will continue to do so through May 2 so there jobs got saved . Everyone else got furloughed including DM , District support staff, SM , Asm down to hourlies
So who is furlouged and who is not?
So no email as of yet, but the new is out there. So how the heck are we supposed to know who is furloughed and who is not? News article said most and Mark's video said vast majority.
