Is this only for the east coast? Like the CPOs and Sterling, neither have hit the west side but we're always hearing about it...

I would think admin ASMs are safe for now. This round is for sales floor only (except for Night Stock Asm, if your store has one). Receiving, admin and PSA DMs should also be safe.

I am on vacation, cannot access owa.myloweslife.com - does that mean I am laid off? Anyone else has similar problems? I am freaking out not, oh well...

The store near me will know the outcome on the 20th of this month. Everyone who works there is nervous. People depending on these jobs are going to be left high and dry. It's sad...
