Employees for the online retailer Wayfair say they are planning a walkout from company headquarters Wednesday in protest of the company selling furniture to migrant detention facilities

According to a woman identifying herself as an employee of the company, Wayfair employees learned last week that an order for about $200,000 worth of bedroom furniture was placed by BCFS, which operates migrant facilities for the Department of Health and Human Services. BCFS is set to open a new facility in Carrizo Springs, Texas, which will accommodate about 1,600 unaccompanied minors.

I say let them, then fire everyone of them. There are plenty of people that will be glad to replace them.

So these idiots don’t want illegal alien kids sleeping on floors so they protest making beds for illegal alien kids? Then they want all the profits to go to some crackpot illegal scam, so make the workers work for free as they would be making a profit getting paid to make beds!

Wayfair, do not give in to these employees demands! Terminate them! Make an example of stupid behavior.

Good for them

Just keep right on walking to unemployment line

They should be fired

I have a feeling Wayfair employees don't like their employer anyway.

Good thing Wayfair doesn't supply food for them. They would STARVE so Democrats could BITCH about THAT also. Good example how nut-jobs like Warren get elected. MASS. VOTERS are NUTS.

FIRE EVERYONE THAT WALKS OUT!!!

Darn whining leftist Democrats. first, they complain that inmigrant children have no decent furniture, and when they find out they are getting some, they walkout to protest the facilities providing new furniture. it seems that the Democrats lights are ON but no one is hoome!🤣

Democrats to Immigrant Kids:

Where does the military get their beds from (wayfare) ?How many beds were shipped and invoiced for? Why is our government allowing a select “for profit” businesses to make millions of dollars from taxpayer money with seemingly no accountability?

It’ll all start falling apart and breaking within 6 months anyway. —Their products are GARBAGE and their politics are even worse! BoycottWayfair karmasuperhit

Yes because beds for the children are bad 🤦🏻‍♀️

Humanity and compassion is gone. What is wrong with people.?

And the company should fire them on the spot.

I guess all of the SJW's would rather 5 year olds slept on a concrete floor. 🤷‍♀️ SJWs: Improve the conditions in holding facilities. Also SJWs: I'll boycott a co. that improves conditions at the border.

Ppl deserve to sleep in beds not concrete floors! Dems don’t care one bit about these kids at the border. They just want to screech

Why should they get beds? I had to sleep on a cot and sometimes the ground while serving this country, so can they for coming here looking for a hand out.

You know what Wayfair just let them go I always learned that if people don’t want to work somebody will. Just let them go they don’t appreciate a job they are racist

Fire them all.

Banal. Insipid. Laughable.

Suffer the little children on your political point. Collateral damage, right? Next go after food and medical services. Only Congress’ political cronies are allowed to make money, Wayfair needs to stay in their lane. Because killing Wayfair will stop immigration problems 🙄🙄🙄

You can visit Wayfair on Facebook and tell them what you think.

See, these are leftists denying immigrant children of a good night’s sleep. They have a problem with that. That’s fkd

Wayfair employees hate immigrants.

Do these dipshits understand the company is providing for migrant needs? Do these dipshits understand where their paycheck comes from?

They're trying to be ethical heroes but in actuality they're making the situation worse.

Notice none of them are volunteering to work for free so the migrant kids can have beds......

More job openings !!!

If only German citizens had walked-out on government orders under the Nazis...

Read the article!

LMFAO. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

So let them continue to sleep on the cement floor?

Better yet....why don’t the heroes just quit?

Still don't get it. What's wrong with these people? Have no clue why these workers would protest like this.

Fire all of them

Wait so getting beds for children brought in illegally is wrong now? These are our tax payer dollars being used.

Fire then all.

I support this. Go people, make your move.

WT....F?

Wayfair Employees Plan Walkout to Protest the Company Selling Beds to Border Detention FacilitiesWayfair employees plan walkout to protest the company selling beds to border detention facilities Because it's better for these poor children to sleep on the floor (?) I would actually fire all the Wayfair employees that participate in the walk out, not for going on strike, but for being to dumb to understand that sleeping on a bed is better than sleeping on the floor So Democrats now want the illegal immigrants to sleep on the floor... got it 👌 Weird... I also didn't know that concentration camps even had beds 🤔
