The Louis S. Wolk Jewish Community Center of Greater Rochester.
JCC of Greater Rochester has announced that it is planning to lay off 296 workers employed at its community and fitness center located in Brighton, a suburb of Rochester, New York.
According to a company spokesperson, "While we were hopeful that this furlough would be temporary in nature and therefore, not result in a mass layoff, the ongoing restrictions imposed by New York state, in particular those relative to the operation of a fitness center, have now made it impossible for us to avoid such action.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
