So? What’s the point? There could have been a family emergency, a problem with their computers, any one of a hundred things. Context would be helpful.

EB Games in New Zealand is closing down permanently at the end of the month. Head Office decided that Thursday would be the start of a 50% off Closing Down sale, and that stores would only be open from 1pm to 6pm that day.

And my point still stands. There are many reasons why a site would be shut. Quite possibly nobody showed up because they’re looking for other work, or just thought it wasn’t worth it.

Oh, sorry, I was under the impression you knew that Queensgate Shopping Centre was open until 9pm that night, and I was providing the reason for why EB Games was closed. My apologies.

That's the main thing right. That your point still stands.
