Laid off as of today. No clue when we go back to work. Filed for unemployment the second I got off the phone with my regional.
If you are following the status numbers we are all assigned, this will apply to stores currently listed as 1 and 2. Stores rated as a 3 should do everything they can do to stay open.
That’s what happened at my store last Thursday. Only salaried managers.
That is the verbal word given; if your store is shuttered beyond a certain time all part time staff is, in fact, furloughed. It was reiterated and continues to be that salaried employees would be paid.... 'for now.' Nothing written, but certainly recorded for posterity's sake
The Family is counting on a government bailout. They won't pay any employees with the bailout, they will line their pockets. Just like the tax break the State of Illinois gave them to stay in Illinois. Family just pocketed the money and the taxpayer's were punked.
Follett don't deserve to get any of their employees back if they do & we all know how successful their recruitment program is.
Have fun running the stores on your own, Follett.
