I have no issues with this

It's time to leave

Nothing good can come out of this. They might not be mentioning layoffs other than for the closing stores yet, but I'm guaranteeing you it's coming. Not to mention, they'll cut our hours but they'll still expect us to do the same amount of work in... — read more

Are we next?

How long before the layoffs hit our side of the pond? I know things are going good right now, but with the vaccine things will probably start to return to normal soon and the boost we received will dissipate. That's probably why we didn't provide an... — read more
