We've had a local boat manufacturer shut their doors last Friday. They also run a marina and do off season storage which unfortunately I utilize. The paper said the marina operations would not be affected however my boat is still not in the water and the phones have been shut off and nobody has been around since last Friday. We just do family recreational boating so our season doesn't really start until Memorial day. But I do like to get it in the water and get it prepped for the season. The marina did get a good number of the boats into the water before last Friday, but for those of us the didn't get put in ????
I'm sure it will get worked out, but I'm starting to get a little impatient and frustrated. There has been no communication from the company. Since I can't get a hold of anyone there I just thought I'd vent to you guys. I keep checking their website hoping for some sort of update but no such luck. And now today the website is shut down.
I don't know for a fact but it sounds like the employees were blindsided as well. Basically they showed up for work and then were told to go home. The paper reported they had people that were there less than a month. Makes you wonder how can you be hiring if you're that close to going under.
I do wish the best for all those that lost their jobs.
