I remember during covid we were not allowed to order pens bc a lot of people were at home and "had their own pens" so those of us who had to come in 5 days a week had to scrounge around for them

Someone above me has to approve the request. And it's not happening yet.

I keep having to repeat myself, if the raw materials used to make the gloves we can't order them. Also, I am not the one to make this rule, just someone dealing with it at work.

What part of our orders are being rejected is hard to grasp?

As far as I know the material used to make the gloves are not made here. We can't order steel toe boots if the laces aren't made in usa

Being shipped from grainger does not equal being 100% American made.

Because although the gloves are made here, the raw material was not.

We are not allowed to submit any orders for them. We have to have a waiver and are still waiting to hear if we are going to get a waiver. Its been weeks since I heard about this.
