While Sears executives get $25 million in bonuses, laid-off workers struggle during Christmastime

While the executives who presided over the bankruptcy of Sears and Kmart will ring out 2018 with news of $25.3 million in bonuses, laid-off worker Ondrea Patrick will be using her unemployment check to pay for new brakes on her 2000 Dodge Durango.

“Those top people and (Sears CEO Eddie) Lampert are having a wonderful Christmas,” Patrick, who worked part-time for Kmart for nine years, told NBC News. “They got $25 million in bonuses. Me? I’m late on my bills. The electric company is threatening to shut me off. And I don’t have anything left to spend on the kids this Christmas.”
