Mike Lindell's MyPillow is getting evicted from one of its Minnesota warehouses, the Star Tribune, a local Minnesota newspaper, reported on Tuesday. "MyPillow has more or less vacated, but we'd like to do this by the book," the landlord's attorney, Sara Filo, said during an eviction court hearing on Tuesday, per Star Tribune.
"At this point, there's a representation that no further payment is going to be made under this lease, so we'd like to go ahead with finding a new tenant," Filo continued.
MyPillow owes First Industrial more than $217,000 in rent and other charges, per court filings seen by the Star Tribune. It is unclear if MyPillow and its staff have fully vacated the premises, but First Industrial's representatives say they have sent at least four eviction notices to MyPillow since September.
Filo's request was granted by Scott County Chief Judge Caroline Lennon on Tuesday, per the Star Tribune. Lindell and representatives for MyPillow did not immediately respond to BI's queries sent outside regular business hours.

(65,060 posts)At it's peak, the company had $150 million in total revenue.
In the consumer products segment, total cost of compensation ranges from 24-30%.
Let's assume the high end, plus a whopping 25% relative. So, $49.5 million in compensation costs.
Problem is, they had 1,500 employees. So the average is $33,000 per employee. And we can be sure Mikey & his lieutenants did not make $33k.
So while I get your sentiment, these weren't great jobs.

moreland01
(739 posts)and did buy one of his stupid pillows back in 2010. It had a guarantee so when I realized how uncomfortable it was, I returned it to their Chaska location. When I opened the main door I was assaulted by the smell of cigarette smoke. It was like walking into a cloud of second-hand smoke. The receptionist evil-eyed me for wanting to return the pillow. I had kept the packaging with the guarantee written on it, so she had no choice but to give me my money back.
This guy deserves all the "bad luck" that comes his way. Some call it karma.
