A postcard company in Florida decided that even as Hurricane Ian, the Category 4 storm, was barreling towards Florida, the workers needed to work anyways. This company cared more about profit than the safety of its workers and staff.

Counties declared states of emergency and ordered residents to evacuate. But Postcardmania declared the hurricane a small threat that was overblown by the media. The CEO of the company, Joy Gendusa, told employees, “We are not closing, we are working.”
To incentive their workers, the CEO told them they were “allowed” to bring their children and pets on the two most dangerous days of the storm. Then, after those two days, Gendusa expected employees to return to the office immediately afterward regardless of the flooding, destruction, and chaos happening in their communities.
Postcard printing is not an essential service. This is no way that a company should treat their employees, especially during a deadly Category 4 hurricane. The least that the company could do is now Donate to hurricane relief funds.
Sign this petition to demand that Postcardmania Donate hurricane relief funds after forcing employees to work during the storm!
