Update
Hi guys-

No word yet from my friend that was in New Orleans. We are also missing 71 employees. We were missing 75, so this is an improvement. We have decided to keep paying people until we decide whether or not to re-open our New Orleans locations (one was almost completely destroyed). We are suspending direct deposit because we don't know exactly who is and who is not still alive.

I've been asked by my friend's father to coordinate with his daughter's friends in the Atlanta area to check shelters and medical facilities. I'm having a few folks over to dinner tonight and I hope to be able to divide the SE into districts. My partner and I have a Costco membership, so I figure that we can all go with some bottled water and non-perishables as well.

1. Thanks for the update, MB.
Was concerned that we hadn't heard anything from you. Here's hoping for the best outcome possible.

2. Thanks for keeping us informed.
Good for you, I knew you'd be doing something like this.
Just don't wear yourself out, you need to look after your health, too.
Let us know if we can do anything at all.

Love you, MB.
Take care.

7. Thank you.
Good luck and be careful!

Our company is also still missing quite a few employees in LA and MS. Just this morning the website had an update saying pay and bemefits will continue uninterrupted until they are found. The co. facilities in both states have major damage, but that's the least of the worries right now.
