Quote:Sam's Club is shutting down 63 stores, and some employees and customers say it did so without warning.
Quote:Workers and customers learned about the store closures on the same day Walmart drew praise from the White House for raising pay and giving out worker bonuses because of the new lower corporate tax rate.
Early in the day, news broke about the sudden shutdown of an unspecified number of Sam's Club locations. Sam's Club, using its official Twitter account, at first said that 53 locations were being shut, and 10 would be converted into fulfillment centers.
I'm sure the WLB was tipped off by his fellow corporate criminal pals.
So they said they were closing the stores -- I got that already. My requesting a source for no-notice was obviously about the employees not getting "a single days' notice" ... something entirely unaddressed in your link. Did anyone show up today for work only to be told they were jobless and to go home? The store was closed, but as a retail manager I know from experience that you just don't call it "closed" and everything's hunky-dory. There's wind-down, and that's usually done with personnel on hand.
FM was saying that people were let go with zero notice. I want to see that claim supported. Got anything?
