Thread regarding Cabela's Inc. layoffs

Even SGB Media called out we've never been open on Thanksgiving!

Article below:

Cabela’s, which was acquired by Bass Pro on September 25, will be open on Thanksgiving for what appears to be the first time in its history.

A Cabela’s flyer indicates that the stores will be open on Thanksgiving Day from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Stores in Berlin, MA and Scarborough, ME are excluded. The stores reopen at 6 a.m. on Black Friday for door buster deals.

Cabela’s has long been known as one of the country’s major retailers to be closed on Thanksgiving.

As recently as November 2014, Cabela’s put out a statement touting its closure on the holiday. Tommy Millner, Cabela’s CEO, said at the time, “It has been a long-standing tradition at Cabela’s to respect the Thanksgiving holiday and ensure our employees can enjoy this time with their families. D--k and Jim Cabela made that decision when they started the company 53 years ago, and it remains unchanged today.”

Thanks Johnny for respecting our values.

I blame the heartless customers who want to shop on Thanksgiving foremost. The company we know is already heartless and will do anything to make a buck. But the customers, they would shop up until the last minute of a fire evacuation procedure.

Ya, know, they brought in a catered meal for us and they rewarded us rather nicely for working on Thanksgiving. In the end, after all the complaining and all the OMG this is terrible, it's the end of the world commentary, we had more people volunteer to work than we needed.

It's all OK though. Johnny Morris is giving us all a free ham or turkey this season. This is almost as pivotal as when Scrooge bought Bob Cratchit dinner and Tiny Tim some crutches.

Can't wait for the next holiday flyer. "In honor of the baby Jesus, Cabela's and Bass Pro will now be open Christmas Day for your shopping pleasure".
