Adding that she had been working seven days a week for months because, as a manager, she only had a specific number of hours per month to allot to her staff. Tribolet said she would be taking a mental health break while other staff members moved on to new jobs they had lined up already.<\/p>\n<p>Tribolet said the decision had not been easy as the staff did not want to leave customers who depended on them stranded. However, they could not keep going with their hard work, remaining unappreciated. The reason might seem strange to some, but it seems like the staff really felt strongly about how hard they had been working without reward or appreciation for it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of our regulars came in there every day, and it\u2019s hard on all of us to not be able to see them every day because they brighten your day,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146832 lazyautosizes lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/13142148\/shutterstock_195625907.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, 536px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/13142148\/shutterstock_195625907.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/13142148\/shutterstock_195625907-768x576.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/13142148\/shutterstock_195625907.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/13142148\/shutterstock_195625907.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/13142148\/shutterstock_195625907-768x576.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-eio-rwidth=\"1000\" data-eio-rheight=\"750\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A company spokesperson said the store was closed on Saturday morning for about three hours.
