Good luck to you, Joe, and I hope it works out with the other store.

Heard at a zombie political rally:

“WHAT DO WE WANT?”

“BRAAAAAAINS!”

“WHEN DO WE WANT IT?”

“BRAAAAAAINS!”

So sorry your store is closing and you are losing your work family. I recently went through the same thing when the retail store I worked in closed. Liquidation is very tough and some of the customers can get really nasty. Stay as long as you can stand it, but it is hard. Best of luck to you. I will miss my local Borders.

It’s going to be very upsetting to be accused of Antisemitism no matter what, and all the more so if you are already under stress and a sheyner yid to boot. It’s not surprising that you would show symptoms of shock.

Sorry to hear about all this and especially that it affects you personally. Best wishes whichever way you go from here.

Thanks.

About not revealing the name: for the next few days, at least, I’m still under the corporate employees’ social media guidelines. Other than that, it’s just become a habit.

Howdy, Joe.
I wonder what decisions could have been made differently, and how far back they would have had to have been (sorry about the verb) to change this history. Your recording of it is probably unique, and is and will be valuable.

What a bummer.

Is there any reason not to publicly reveal the name of the chain any more?
