Yes, "there" should be "their" - just a typo and warding off the grammar police...

Anyway, all around Massachusetts and New Hampshire, the Market Basket stores are effectively closed. They are technically open and the employees are earning wages for their shifts, but they are standing outside the stores and urging customers to not go inside.

Not just the hourly employees but the salaried managers as well. They are all willing to shut down the business in order that the board of directors give in and hire back their beloved CEO.

As well, over 100,000 customers of this chain have signed petitions stating that they will no longer shop at Market Basket unless the CEO is re-hired.

Then we have to look at what’s happening in the MB warehouses.. they must be refusing trucks delivering and refusing drivers leaving with the perishables. Did they just padlock the warehouses?

I wonder what shareholders are saying to the board?

Yeah, but they'll get you for starting a sentence with "So". The FRGP will be after you! :)

They are getting paid to destroy their business... weird
