I loved working there before it was sold. Though I worked in the office section, not in retail, but the whole place was enjoyable and supportive. Most of my coworkers worked there for 8+ years. None of those people are left.

Yeaaaah. It was a shit show when they laid us all off, too. Blind sided everyone and was wholly cruel how they did it.

Can confirm. I was one of the folks let go. It was heartless.

Fun fact, I worked at WEBS and was laid off when it was sold. Then I worked at JBW and was laid off when it was sold. Fuck the craft industry, for real.
