Big Box stores struggle to stay staffed

According to Indeed the number of workers seeking seasonal positions this holiday season is down 38% due to fears of getting sick. It makes sense considering the fact that Big Box stores average 2,000 customers per day, which equates to an average of only 50 sq ft per customer! With covid-19 running rampant in our communities, that number is quite a shock to some people, especially those working in a congested workplace such as Home Depot or Lowe’s. It's no surprise Big Box store staffs are starting to dwindle. We suggest that you stay safe this holiday season and shop at low volume specialty stores
