The company probably didn't want to pay their health insurance either.
I guess that's one way to look at it. On the other hand, the receiving manager at store #1278 probably doesn't play as large a part in turning B&N's fortunes around as the upper management that still have their jobs.

I used to work for B&N and am pretty sure the full timers did have medical, though I wasn't a full-time employee myself.
