Years ago I used to work for Circuit City. I thought the company was great. Up until they laid me off. From the year 2003 the company rid itself from the most qualified workers who knew about electronics.
I was one of those qualified workers. After the company let me go, I knew that a company like this could not last long. Before Circuit city told the public in 2008 that they were shutting down a few stores, I knew about it.
Having friends that still work at Circuit city was a benefit.in this case, they did in fact lie to the public about shutting down.
Where as they told the public we are just shutting down X-AMOUNT of stores, they told me as a previous employee that they were shutting down all of there stores.
Can you believe how many 'MILLIONS' of people Circuit city lied to? Months beforehand, they told me that they were shutting down all of its stores. But they told you, we are shutting down just a few and 'NOT TO WORRY'.
Integrity, honesty and trust are vital in the business world. When a company is shutting down, let this be a lesson to you. They are not thinking about you the 'CONSUMER'. They are thinking about one thing and that one thing is 'MONEY'.
We all know the economy is in turmoil right now. But in the midst of such chaos, we should have the decency of honest CEO's and business owners who are not afraid to be frank and truthful to us as the consumer.
If anything, I would have a better taste in my mouth concerning Circuit city. As far as I'm concerned, they betrayed there most reliable employees and lied to million's of consumers just like you and you weren't even aware of it!
