I worked for HT for 15 years. So thankful I was able to get out of retail 3 years ago. I’m in a tourist industry now so I’m laid off. Still glad I’m not in a grocery store - snow storm times a million.

Take care of yourself and your family. Do what you have to for survival. I really hate the company I think you work for with a passion- Especially senior mngmt.

If anyone gives you grief just remember, “No task is so urgent that it cannot be done safely”. Take that to your managers and HR and a lawyer if necessary.

Hope you make through this. Focus on those in the community who need you there. Most are grateful even though they don’t say so
