has any one been in the position.... where the store/business they work in is closing, and u have to bide ur time while it does it- (march this year). i cant take orders 4 customers, and im sick of having to explain to ppl every 5 mins why we r closing.
i know im complaining- a lot of ppl r losing their jobs, and at least ive got a bit of notice. but ARRRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!! im pulling my hair out here!!!!! vent over  seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before   | |

can you put a sign a the desk? "due to store closure in March, no more orders for books can be taken. Sorry for the inconvenience!" | |

Zombie's sign idea is prob the way to go. except it's not allowed such a pity, it is such a horrible time with closures left right & centre, and the banks going to the wall. | |

maybe prb doesn't have a sign all the time, just like a card she can hold up when asked?  | |

maybe prb doesn't have a sign all the time, just like a card she can hold up when asked? ya, a kind of talk to the hand/sign action. or she could have a rant at the customers and ask them why they are only shopping there now the shop is fit to close? | |

You should hand your resume to each person who asks, "Why is the store closing?" A working class Hero is something to be ~ Lennon |

I feel your pain
at my old job, when ever we ran out of coffee sleeves, I'd tape a sign to my apron that said "SORRY WE'RE OUT OF SLEEVES!" so peolpe would stop asking for them for their weak and sensitive hands....It was working, until the district manager came in and threatened to write me up for it If you will, so will I | |
