Early text returns, more layoffs by end of March. Stores closing. Will there be a next year? Is this the end?

One can hope
I doubt it’s the end for the company. It may be for stores not making a profit. Who knows? I’m hanging on because I love the hours and I have most weekends off. However, I do miss having a team. I’m looking in the meantime.
What does it normally take for a store to close down?
No, this is not the end, YET! The voraciously avarice Follett Family will continue to twist and squeeze the stores until the last drop of human life blood is exanguinated from Each and Every Associate still unfortunate enough to be strapped and bound to their stores. There are several Acts left to this tragic work of non-fiction. They and their familiars will continue to devise new strategies capable of providing the seemingly elusive, but always delivered DIVIDEND!
Every one under them whom finds themselves in this position needs to abandon this sinking ship as soon as possible while there is still opportunity available. Each year the vampires grow in their insatiable thirst for for more, while leaving an insidious trail of carnage in their wake. Most of you whom have escaped will be glad to see the final act of comedy when they finally turn their attention to the GVP class and drain them dry. The epilogue will be short and even more comic when the family members turn on each other.
I do find it odd that we didn't have to do the Code of Conduct in February.
No, it's not. Lol. There are already plans that stretch past March. Work Station upgrades, new store openings and renovations, new open positions being added, etc. People have been coming here making this same post for years.
