Employee reset bug.

As the title stated, I hit the employee reset bug.

I usually only save/leave the game at the start of the day before I open out of habit and rarely leave the game during the middle of the day and one of the few times I do, I get hit with the bug.

Is there no way to brg it back? Any updated mods to fix this for 1.0? Or do I just suck it up and deal with it?
