MONROE. Mich. (FOX 2) - The owners of a Monroe Papa John’s say every month since the pandemic began it got harder and harder to justify remaining open. The inevitable came when at the beginning of this week they closed up shop, saying they did not have enough people to serve the customers the way they deserved. When we started with the COVID-19 we knew that there was going to be a lot of issues because certain people couldn’t continue to work due to their families being compromised, said owner Jaclyn Childers. So we did give our current employees a bonus, and we were trying to give raises and trying to encourage people to continue working.
