Pretty much only in California, so most of you probably haven't heard of it, but all 145 Mervyns department stores are closing. Not really a big deal for most of the state, but where I live, our choices are: Mervyns, Kmart, Walmart, or driving 70 miles one way to clothes shop. My 12 year old is in mourning
. What struck me as really shitty on the company's part is that even after this news was on the L.A. news, the web, and even on Mervyn's own website, one employee that I spoke to didn't know(after that I didn't say anything about it to any of them). Seems like a really crappy way to treat their workers.
