Heyas,
Not the first or last time something like this will happen.
Back in the mid 90's, GP Express folded up overnight. A buddy of mine showed up to work, and everything that wasn't bolted to the terminal floor was gone. He used a payphone to call a few of the company numbers, and they were all disconnected.
He finally got ahold of the owner's wife at home, and she told him "yea, we shut down. I guess someone should have told you". They jacked him for a couple of grand in back wages.
It always amazes me in situations like this how, somehow, every last stapler, paperclip and other assets are secured literally overnight, but they can't manage to pick up a fracking telephone and tell the employees.
GP was a funny little outfit. We actually looked up to Great Lakes.
