Closing Time

We got the word a couple of weeks ago that all of us at the two Bombay Companies in Utah are going to be out of jobs. We were okay with that for a time while they tried to work out what incentives they were going to give us so we would stick around and finish with the closing of the store. Well, we just got more word that we should be satisified with the company and how generous they were being with us. We don't get any special discounts. We can either buy at the employee discount or buy at the customer discount. Yes, 50 % off for employees is great! However, we as employees would like a little more off due to the fact that we won't be making anymore money for a time. Therefore, we wouldn't be able to afford the items that we would want. We also shouldn't expect for them to give us any other special things, esp. one of our assistant managers. She was hired on expecting a long term job and was told that it would be. Now, with her hours and busy life, she has had no time to go job searching and the company isn't trying too hard to help her with job placement. As a matter of fact, the way they act, it seems to all of us that they don't care. Which might be true. All of us have given up on our morale. We are still as pleasant to customers as ever, but there is no reason that we should be happy about working at one of the funnest jobs. As much as we would love to all just walk out at one time, our store manager might be looking for a transfer to another state, and we can't just do that to her. So, what are we to do?
