B&N Temporarily Closes 400 Outlets - Publishers Weekly

Mom. Can I come out now.
Panzer decided to make a quick trip to the Publishers Weekly site today. With no digging at all our resourceful kitty found a post about how Barnes and Noble bookstores are responding to the Coronavirus (Covid-19).

According to the post by Jim Milliot, due to the Coronavirus pandemic 400 Barnes and Noble bookstores have closed to foot traffic. This means shoppers are no longer allowed in the stores. Some Barnes and Noble bookstores, however, now have curbside pickup available. This allows shoppers who order their books online to then pick them up at a local Barnes and Noble bookstore.

Panzer says, "Hmm ... That means a lot of bookstore workers lost their jobs. ... Wait! ... Amazon is hiring warehouse people!"

Note: This is a short post. You'll only need a cup of tea for today's reading selection.
