Hobby Lobby hasn’t looked good in all of this
They don't have any competition when they do return.
All of their e-based competitors can still sell their shite.

Karen was bitching that her 60 yr old mom had to go to work and hobby lobby was non essential.

Ehh the arguments for them closing are stupid.
They basically stating supplies to make Ppe and supplies for school is why they are open.
Sounds good to me. But instead people just want to continue to funnel more people to the few supermarkets that have all cut their open hours? Yeah makes perfect fricking sense.
Please continue to go to overcrowded stores where you are most likely to spread or catch it.

What sucks is places like Walmart can continue to sell craft items, since they also sell groceries.
States are beginning to put a halt to that.

In order to allow our furloughed employees to take full advantage of the Pandemic Unemployment Compensation and Recovery Rebates provided to eligible employees by the federal government, we are ending emergency leave pay and suspending use of Company provided paid time off benefits (PPTO and Vacation) in accordance with the requirements outlined in the CARES Act (subject to State law requirements).
However, we will maintain medical, dental, life, and long-term disability benefits for employees while furloughed through at least May 1, 2020, and will pay the cost of employee premiums for these benefits on behalf of employees while furloughed without pay. We encourage furloughed employees to file their claims with their State’s unemployment commissions as soon as possible.
Upon return, employees will retain their original dates of hire and any accrued PPTO and Vacation. Our sincere gratitude goes out to our dedicated employees at this difficult time, and we look forward to the day when we can welcome them back, once we are able to reopen.

Are they not paying out PTO?
If so, congrats on the lawsuits HL. You showed them.

Seems kinda of silly that they can't use PTO they earned
I agree with this. If corporate decides to close and furlough, fine. But don’t take away PTO from those who’ve earned it.

So far, so good.
Slow, but we are keeping everyone and encouraging the few that aren't on the health plan to get on it. Open enrollment.

My area of the business is on hyperdrive right now. Other areas have been halted, but my area + the CARES act loans/grants should keep us in really good shape for the foreseeable future.

Gotta hand it to them. It was pretty clever of them to make the 'we're staying open' feint and let the employees/public make the clamor for them to close. Now that they are, they can say, "we'll we were forced into it."

The Government forced their hands. Now their employees will get state unemployment PLUS $600 a week to NOT work. Why on earth would the employees need to use vacation or sick time?
Posted on 4/3/20 at 6:44 pm to BowDownToLSU
Every “moral” or “religious” position Hobby Lobby takes seems to result in the denial or reduction of benefits to their employees. Look it up.

Because it's earned.

Doesn't that effect amount of Unemployment Compensation and Recovery Rebates they can receive (I haven't read through the emergency acts)?
It's there after furlough and there if they resign or furlough becomes layoffs. In mean time possibly no effect on emergency unemployment, same health insurance, and employer paying their share of premiums for health insurance, and when they return same date of hire and remaining PTO is available.

And they get to keep their sick time while getting paid by the Government that shut their employer down.
