While unemployment gets a boost, is it stated anywhere how long that $600 bonus applies?
Also, being a full time grocery store worker that makes around $330 weekly take home (we're paid weekly instead of bi weekly), the idea of being in the line of fire and not getting more significant boosts to income sucks ass. I am getting a $300 bonus next week on my paycheck. Which is nice, but I want more for the shit I'm doing.
To give you guys an idea of how well Kroger is doing, our store goal about two weeks ago when panic buying started, was around $60,000 on Friday, and $70,000 Saturday. We ended up doing $134,000 and $120,000 on both those days. We did $600,000 for that week. These past two weeks, my store amongst thousands has made around 2-3 million dollars in revenue.
And my store is typically middle in the road for being a top earner in the district. Grocery stores had a ginormous boom this past month, like, swimming in money boom.
