Springs, and Denver have all been closed. Here in Colorado Springs, there
was no notice, either to the public or to the workers. The managers came
in to open up, only to discover the locks had been changed in the dead of
night. About 70 people in town are suddenly unemployed. Apparently the
shutdown was done the same way in Denver and Canon City.

employee, I am appalled at the way they conduct their business. Making their
long-standing employees re-apply at other locations, losing their benefits and
vacation time, is demeaning at best. Unfortunately, if the public reacts by not
buying their pizza, more employees are likely to show up for work only to find
locked doors....al

never having worked in a chain environment, i still have always believed

Computer City, they didn't bother to tell the people working in the stores
they would be closing them. In fact, right up until they did, the employess
were all convinced they were closing "other" stores, but not *their* store.

Happens with ISP's, too. At least there was a severance package, though!

That's a good point Alan. Job security should certainly never be taken
for granted unless you're a United States Supreme Court Justice.

The stores in Indiana were closed in the same manner, but while I was on
vacation on the West Coast. They changed the locks, called my
assisstant and told him to tell everyone they were fired. When I got
home I called the phone number given us, but only got voice mail.
Eventually I received a letter, stating that they would pay me 'X'
dollars severance, plus any due time(vac pay) only if I signed a
release form in advance. I did... As an salaried employee, I was
required to work a minimum of 50 hours a week, but when they settled
up, they only paid vacation at 40 hours per week, plus only paid the
last week actual hours worked, conveniently forgetting their own salary
agreement. If there ever was a mean spirited uncaring company, it is
little caesars. They are the worst I've seen in my 50 years.
they also left a lot of building damage in their wake and a huge pile
of uncollected trash behind the building. They absolutely dont care
about anything, anyone, or anywhere--other than their profit margin.

I'm glad I know this stuff. It makes it easier to avoid this company which
has several franchise outlets in South Africa.
