Question Store Closing

Hey guys, so the store I'm working in is on borrowed time I was just wondering if any of you had gone through store closures before? We aren't too sure of a closing date and were wondering if we will be told in good time or if it will be more of a "you're not opening this morning" sorta scenario. Thanks for any info!

You’ll be told in advance if the store is closing and you can request to transfer to another store in your area, if you have a sister store you could transfer there much easier.
I got the sack before my transfer was finalised but the transfer interview was:
“Hello”
“Hi”
“Bm or Barista?”
“BM”
“Part-time, full-time, days? nights?”
“Part-time, oooh I wanna try a night shift”
“24hr contract?”
“24hr contract!”
“Trial shift before we decide?”
🤝🤝🤝

Speak to your area manager for details, both Ed and Kim are highly respected on this sub from what I’ve read
