My best friend is a store manager for (a shoe store company),has been for 14 years.The store she was kinda forced to take over was newly opened 2 years ago.She is a store manager and also supervises the old store she was in charge of.Now the lease for her new store is over and they can't renew it because the owner of the strip leased the store to another company.There is no room for my friend at the other 4 stores nearby she was told,so she is going to be unemployed soon.The bad thing is,she doesn't know when her last day is.Can she ask to be put in a store with same pay rate,can she really be unemployed? What can she do to keep her pay.If she finds a new job there is no guarantee she will get same pay,plus she loves working for this company.

Your friend should go to the director of human resources for payless and talk to them. Unless her performance has been below their standards, which I doubt or she would have been let go a long time ago, she should have some seniority. She could also check with the labor board in her state.

Well........without sounding mean or nasty.
This is what happens when a store or job, or factory closes. People get layed off....it's life.
welcome to the unemployment line baby.....take a number.
