That's about where we're at. We were told at the end of last week to make a schedule for this week and we'd go from there. We were told they didn't have a definite closing date, and that even if we make the schedule through the 31st we weren't guaranteed to be open till then. As for the...
Yeah, I've been working with the company for a year and a half and I've felt that way since I started. The company just screws employees at every possible turn. There have been four or five stores (a couple HV and a couple GC) in my district that have had a DM show up 30 minutes before open to...
That sounds like our company and is somehow not surprising. I guess I'm lucky because my manager already left and they don't really have anyone else to work. There are three remaining staff members, myself included, and two of them are leaving after this week no matter what. I'm thinking I...
Yeah, we get plenty of decent people that come in and show genuine concern for us (they ask if we are able to transfer and keep our jobs rather than acting like the store closing is the best news they've ever heard because they can get a discount). Those people are great and we sincerely...
I completely agree with your assessment of the company. This whole closing process is 100% their fault and can't be blamed on customers not shopping their enough or any other similar nonsense. The company failed time and time again and is suffering the consequences. I'm not being overly...
It seems that there are no "plans" for anything at this point. Everything is last minute, no notice, without warning, etc. They literally had the DM show up at a couple stores 30 minutes before the store opened to tell the manager that they would be packing their stuff up and shipping it out...
Not all of the stores are staying open past the date and they haven't given any sort of definite date for closing. Could be an extra couple days, could be an extra couple months.
As for stoned99's comment, there's more to it than that. Game Crazy stores are in Hollywood Video and technically...
Just found my store is staying open past the 25th. It is the 22nd, and we literally JUST found out that we aren't closing on the 25th as we were scheduled to. The actual closing date is now completely up in the air without so much as an estimate for when we will actually close. Still no news...
I'm not doubting that some store somewhere has a manager that does this. I worked at the store in question and the person who claimed the company forced them put Game Guard on their games or preorder something when they bought something claims to have worked with the guy who started this whole...
That is not true at all. I worked there as well and the company had no such policy. Some employees would give you a guilt trip about "killing their numbers" if you didn't want Game Guard or a preorder, but there was no expressed or implied policy that you had to Game Guard your games or...
