About 400 Premium Protein Products workers who have been off the job since June will remain on furlough for at least two more weeks.
A recorded phone message notified workers of the latest furlough extensions. Company officials did not immediately respond to a message The Associated Press left on Wednesday.
The company specializes in providing beef, pork and chicken with a verified source.
Premium Protein has its headquarters and a processing plant in Lincoln; its slaughterhouse is in Hastings. Those plants will remain closed at least until Nov. 17.
Private equity firm Matlin Patterson in New York is the majority owner of the company.

This reminds me of the movie called the Money Pit when the contractor kept telling them that the house would be completed in 2 weeks.

Big surprise!!!! Is this company ever going to be straight forward with its employees,and explain to them what is going on? Or are they just going to continue leaving recorded messages?
