trickykittyOf all the COVID-19 emails I have received from places of business in the past 48 hours, the one from Barnes & Noble came off rather cryptic, as though it's really a secret spy message in need of being decoded.
Most of them probably copy/pasted from someone else and talk about how they've been following the news, health and safety of patrons and employees matters, and then specifics of what they have implemented within their business and/or closing info.
Some of them include special discounts for the weekend and free delivery to encourage continued patronage.
Here's B&N's:
-----------------------------------------
Dear Reader,
We’re living through turbulent times together. Our booksellers are your neighbors, your friends and family. Your stories are our stories, and we know how resilient our communities are.
Sincerely,
The Booksellers of Barnes & Noble

Um...yeah...okay.
